Adult

The unprecedented rate of technological change - with 24/7 connection to others, the development of virtual realities and virtual relationships of all sorts - may be redefining what it is to be human in the 21st century. This workshop will look at the secret world of teenagers (and adults) and offer suggestions of how we can get back to a reality grounded in authentic feeling and connection.

This discussion is facilitated by Jerry Sanders, Clinical Social Worker/ Therapist, LCSW-R

Valerie Lucznikowska will present a brief history of the prison at Guantanamo Bay Naval Base in Cuba.  Having visited the prison, she will discuss its current operation and what the future may hold.

Join Ruth Landstrom, Ph.D., for ideas on how to bring mindfulness to everyday life.  Each class will include a guided mediation practice.  Attendance at all four sessions is encouraged.

Join us for the premiere of the "Play in a Day." A group of senior improvisational actors will perform a play they created at the workshop earlier in the day. Under the direction of director Linda Richmond, the actors developed the theme, scenario, characters and dialogue from their life experiences and imaginations to create this original improvised dramatic production. This will be a unique theater experience for all!

Come celebrate 200 years of Jane Austen!  The Pretty Committee will show you how to create a beautiful votive candle out of recycled jars.  Participants are asked to bring in a jar (or two); we will provide the paint and patterns.
