This workshop offers an opportunity to explore different techniques and forms of art, such as brush painting, pen and ink, watercolor, and drawing. All levels of experience and expertise are welcome. Participants will bring their own supplies and materials and will work independently. While class facilitators and participants can offer encouragement, ideas and suggestions to each other, this will NOT be an instructional class.

Coordinators: Basilio King, Christopher Melby and Alfredo Rodriguez

From the age of six, Andrew Lloyd Webber was a musical prodigy. He was referred to by The New York Times in 2001 as “the most commercially successful composer in history.” The first session will cover his life and personal history. There is so much to learn about this greatly honored and most talented man. In the second session we will all enjoy songs from some of his most famous works.

Have you ever looked up at the sky on a dark and starry night? Unless you tried this away from the bright city lights, you missed the best part. Peering up at the sky you can see a few stars and planets close to us. You can expand your view in darkness and see the Milky Way galaxy and more of the universe. With the aid of simple to complex telescopes, cameras, etc. you can begin to understand that our earth is a miniscule part of the entire universe. This series of lectures will help us to grasp the complexity and depth of what lies out in the great beyond with the most comprehensible explanation possible. Is a Black Hole a reality? Is there a “God” particle? Let’s dig in and find out.
