more money getting paid out than collected.

making. Learn how to optimize cash ow, un-

ESSENTIAL OILS FOR PET
PROFESSIONALS
As a pet professional you encounter stressed
pets. When therapeutic grade Essential Oils
(EOs) are used properly, they are a very safe
and effective modality that may be used alone
or in conjunction with other techniques to ease
anxiety and promote wellness. The safety and
effectiveness of an EO will depend greatly on
its quality and how it is used. As with medica-
tions, the strength (purity) of the oil, the amount
per dose, the frequency of dosage, and the
route of administration will all play a role in its
effect. Essential oil selection, concerns and
use of some the more common EOs in our four
legged companions will be discussed. Pet par-
ents are welcome. . All participants will receive
a free Zyto Scan (to help identify essential
oils and/or supplements that may be bene-
cial) and take home samples for their pets! Do
NOT bring a pet to class. Do NOT bring a pet

ELEMENTS OF MUSICAL COMPOSITION
This is a practical introductory course for those
interested in composing music of any genre. It
focuses on developing composition skills such
as melodic construction and fostering your
understanding of harmony, rhythm, and instru-
mentation. The instructor will provide you with
weekly structured exercises that will help you
play around with ideas and essentially develop
them into your own pieces or songs. These ex-
ercises are designed to emphasize artisanship
and to stimulate the imagination. Given that
the class puts forth the premise that anyone
can make music, the course is designed to
welcome beginners, more experienced com-
posers, and enthusiasts. It helps if you can
play an instrument to some extent and if you
have some familiarity with musical notation but
these skills are not essential to participation in
the course. This course will also examine no-
tational systems and the specics of notating
music, teaching you to put your own music into
a form that will be transferable to others in the
eld. The class will take place in a special state
of the art computer MIDI lab. Each student will
have his/her own Digital Audio Workstation
(DAW), which includes music software. Stu-
dents will be using Musescore or Finale nota-

The Spanish conquistadors in the 16th Cen-

the diversity of Chilean viticulture. From the
Spanish comes the Vitis vinifera family and
from the French comes Cabernet Sauvignon,
Merlot, Carmen re and Franc. Since the 1980s,
investments to capitalize on favorable growing
conditions has driven the quality of their wine
up, overcoming the previous reputation. In fact,
Chile is now a top 5 importer of wine to the
United States while also developing other in-
ternational markets. Marcel Flori will help you

WINES OF NEW ZEALAND
New Zealand is characterized by a temperate
maritime climate which reaches every vineyard
in the country. Accounting for less than 1% of
the world’s wine according to New Zealand’s
wine growers association there is surprising
variety to be had. Growers started with Sauvi-
gnon Blanc but moved on to other important
whites and reds. Chardonnay, Pinot Gris, Ries-
ling and Gew rztraminer are among the whites
while Pinot Noir, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon
and Syrah are all grown to great effect. There
are also smaller plantings that make the coun-
try unique. Albari o, Arneis, Gr ner Veltliner,
Gamay Noir, and Verdelho are all native to
Europe but bring uniqueness to some of New
Zealand’s most interesting wines. Marcel Flori
will round out your knowledge of the wines of
New Zealand as he presents you with a select-

WINES OF SOUTH AFRICA
Wine growing areas in South Africa enjoy
a Mediterranean climate along with moun-
tain slopes and valleys. This allows for the
successful hosting of the Vitis vinifera grape
(which was also brought to Chile). Long sum-
mers and mild, wet winters make for favorable
viticulture conditions. In fact, vineyards have
been planted in South Africa since the 17th
Century. Though Dutch settlers there had lit-
tle winemaking experience, the French Hu-
guenots that followed began to develop and
industry. Today ne wines are produced from
Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay, and Shiraz
and Pinot Noir. There are also local cross vari-
eties including a red variety, Pinotage, a cross
between Pinot Noir and Hermitage (Cinsaut)
that is now grown in abundance. Enjoy Marcel
Flori’s comments on South African Wine as he
leads you through a carefully selected tasting.

3D PRINTING FOR METAL CASTING
Lost wax casting of metals has been done for
millennia. Now, with 3D printed plastics such
as PLA, Lost PLA casting is available to ex-
plore. Develop and 3D print a PLA plastic ob-
ject that can be cast in metal in our separate
Bronze Casting or Jewelry classes. Students
will develop 3D models in a variety of ways.
They can build 3D models using cloud-based
software (Tinkercad, Fusion360, etc.). They
can download readymade models from Inter-
net websites (Thingiverse, Sketch fab, Free3D,
Turbosquid, etc.), or they can scan small ob-
jects using the Makerspace digital scanner and
convert them to 3D model format. Students will
then create 3D printable les (.stl les) using
a Slicer program to make the 3D printer ready
(explained in class). Students will then 3D print
these models into objects that can be cast in
metal in either the CE Bronze Casting or Jew-
elry classes. (No metal will be cast in this 3D
print class).

EDOUARD MANET- THE PURSUIT OF
BEAUTY
Depicting the Paris of his day, Edouard Manet
captured the 19th-century urban experience,
beginning modern life as an artistic subject.
His detached, frank mode of looking and his
subversive handling of both paint and sub-
ject-matter shocked his contemporaries and
eventually established his reputation as the
father of modern painting. This lecture will ex-
plore Manet’s portraiture which was a signi-
cant aspect of his work and his still life work.
It will also review the artist’s stylistic evolution,
his parallel style with Renior and links with ear-
ly photography.

GEORGIA OKEEFE:
ART, IMAGE, AND MODERN STYLE
The artistic career of the American artist Geor-
gia OKeefe spans nearly 100 years. A recent
exhibition at the Peabody Essex Museum in
Salem, MA, was dedicated to this independent
and condent artist who established herself as
the only female member of the Alfred Stiglitz
circle of modern artists. Then she continued to
thrive with her constant and unique aesthetic.
This exhibition also integrated 60 items from
her wardrobe many of which she designed,
as she sought to create a style that spoke not
only of who she was but created an image of
her person that went along with her modern art
style.

GUSTAV KLIMT -
THE PURSUIT OF BEAUTY
As one of the founders of the Vienna Seces-
sion Art Movement and often regarded as the
greatest painter of Art Nouveau, Gustav Klimt
focused much of his work upon the apprecia-
tion of the female form, was famed for incorpo-
rating gold leaf into particular works, such as
Woman in Gold, the portrait of Adele Block-
Bauer and The Kiss. These works result as
highly decorative pieces of art, as are his land-
scapes and many murals.The beauty of Klimt’s
works will b discussed in context with the city of
Vienna at the turn of the 20th century, a center
for extravagant cultural achievement, second
only to Paris.

AMERICAN ABSTRACT EXPRESSIONIST
ARTIST
Marc Rothko belongs to the generation of
American artists who completely revolution-
ized the essence and design of Abstract Ex-
pressionist painting in the middle of the 20th
century. In 1948, Rothko began to create what
he called multi-forms, paintings in which he
increasingly abandoned themes that related to
gurative art, and he turned to the abstract for
which he became known. Rothko insisted that
he was not an abstract artist, but he said he
was interested only in expressing basic human
emotions, such as tragedy, ecstasy, doom,
and so on, through elds of color combination.
Viewers who see these works appear to be
moved emotionally by these color combina-
tions and often spend extended periods of time
contemplating them.

ANSEL ADAMS:
AMERICAN PHOTOGRAPHER
Ansel Adams, photographer, environmentalist
and writer was born on February 29, 1902, in
San Francisco and taught himself to play piano
and to read music at the age of 12. Although
piano and music was his primary occupation
for the next few years he gave it up once he
was given his rst Kodak Box Camera by his
father on a visit to Yosemite. The rest is history.
After several more visits to the Sierras, Ansel
began to absorb the grand vistas, the magic of
the cool dawns, and the brilliance of the stars
at night. These became the subject of his well-
known photographs and publications.

COLOR AND MEANING IN RENAISSANCE
ART: Confronting a Painting
Did colors have meaning? Unlock the role of
color and technique used by artists in Renais-
sance painting 1300-1600. How did artists
use color to communicate to an uneducated
public? How did the understanding of optics
contribute to color theory, style and the role
of viewer? What pigments were available and
how did the introduction of oil revolutionize
painting? From Giotto (Florence) to Michelan-
gelo (Rome) to Titian (Venice) examine the
contribution of great Renaissance artists to the
material, emotional and spiritual world of color
and cultural history.

ROME THE ETERNAL CITY - ITS HISTORY,
ARCHITECTURE AND ART
The city of Rome began as an iron age village
ed according to a legend by twin brothers Ro-
mulus and Remus. In 616 BCE the Etruscans
seized power and dominated the Italian Pen-
ninsula for a period of 400 years. Later the
Roman people established a Republic. Julius
Caesar emerged aa a military leader in the rst
century became a dictator and after a twen-
ty-year civil war, Augustus began to form the
Empire Period that lasted 300 years. Rome’s
history is over 2000 years old and it was there
that the Christian Church was organized under
Constantine. Today’s great sites include the
Vatican, ancient architecture. forums, foun-
tains. parks, catacombs, museums, and gal-
leries.

THE ART DECO STYLE
Art Deco was the exciting new international
movement in decorative art and design that
swept away the elaborate ornamentation
of preceding centuries and replaced it with
stunning simplicity of line. Previous ages had
drawn inspiration from the past; this movement
of the 1920s and 1930s was shaped by the
present and the future. Art Deco was the em-
bodiment of the steam age, the machine age,
the automobile, and aviation age. This lecture
will survey various aspects of this style with
images of fashion, jewelry, design, tableware,
and ceramics

MARY OLIVER: MARRIED TO AMAZEMENT
Mary Oliver, who spent a lifetime making a
world out of words, died on January 17, 2019,
at age 83. Her critics claim that her poetry is a
little too sweet, a little too easy. But her admir-
ers made her one of America’s most popular
poets. She encourages her readers to proclaim
with her: When it’s over, I want to say: all my
life I was a bride married to amazement. In this
talk we ll examine her life, her poetry of amaze-
ment, and her insights into the life of the spirit.

themes: life is a battleeld, everyone’s wound-
ed, and the only response is grace under pres-
sure. In addition, we ll examine his life and
literary style to see what makes Hemingway
a permanent American icon. American writers
who came after Hemingway consciously imitat-
ed his style or worked hard not to imitate him
he was, and remains, that inuential.

THE GALAPAGOS-LAND OF DARWIN AND
VERY LARGE TORTOISE!
Ever since Darwin went on a naturalist’s voy-
age on the HMS Beagle, human interest and
inquiry continues on these isolated equatori-
al islands near Ecuador. Ongoing studies of
unique species of plant and animal life con-
tinues to support the Theory of Evolution that
Darwin wrote about in his book On The Origin
of Species in 1859. This class will take a look
at the variety of organisms and their adapta-
tions that made them so interesting to Darwin
and all of science. We will also see that the
interest has created environmental conicts
for the people of the Galapagos and tourism
as well as the natural species found on these
islands.

YOSEMITE AND THE WATER WARS IN

Yosemite Valley- one of the most photographed
No wonder that it became a National Park!
Yet the resources in the park (like water) are
in demand. How does this affect the National
Park? What series of natural geologic process-
es created such a beautiful valley? This class
will also look into the ongoing need to acquire
water for one of the most heavily populated
areas in the Unites States. The problem con-
tinues due to a lack of natural water sources
sufcient to meet the needs of an ever-growing
population. Let’s look at historic efforts of at-
taining a water supply for the ever-increasing
need and how it has created a ongoing history
of man’s inability to control the most necessary
resource on the planet. This class will also
examine the water controversies of Yosemite
National Park and the Owens Valley as well as

THE POWER OF PHILOSOPHICAL IDEAS
Philosophical ideas are often impossible to
prove true or false. Is there a soul? Does God
exist? Do we have free will? Does everything
happen for a reason? All of these are questions
that philosophers try to answer. But, perhaps
it is better to think not about whether an idea
is true or not, but what the value of the idea
would be to positively impact our lives and the
world we live in. This course will work back-
wards , asking students to reect on the big
issues in their lives, and then investigating the
ways specic philosophical ideas can speak
to these issues.We will likely discuss personal
issues such as dealing with loss, and societal
issues like the phenomenon of people being so
certain they are right that we lose the ability to
listen to each other, but the specics are up to
you. Course meets April 8th, 15th, and 22nd.

Not only was the Treaty of Versailles a poorly

these Displaced Persons and helped them to
prepare for a future life in the United States
and Israel. Join German Historian Anette Isaa-

GERMANY AND ISRAEL - UNLIKELY
FRIENDSHIP
55 years ago Germany and Israel reluctantly
entered into diplomatic relations. What at rst
glance seems to be a rather unlikely relation-
ship especially in light of the shared histo-
ry-- has evolved over time into a blossoming
friendship and successful economic bond. In
order for this to happen Germany had to face
its Nazi legacy and subsequent collective
guilt. Join German Historian Anette Isaacs as
she discusses how her native country has at-
tempted to cope with the guilt of causing the
Holocaust and how this painful but necessary
process heralded a new era in German- Israeli
relations.
