Special Announcements

Revised Schedule: Due to inclement weather, we had to postpone Lecture 2 of Addicted to Print. The lecture which was to have been on March 6 will now be on the 13th, and all subsequent lectures moved ahead one week. The final lecture is now on April 10.

You can still buy tickets to Series 4 - Addicted to Print: Reflections on the Joys of Reading. Catch up on any missed lectures by replay, and watch the rest live at the Bayshore or on Vimeo.
