Course Schedule – Spring 2024 / Old Courses / PRESENTER’S SHOWCASE
Coordinators: Joyce West, Steve Allen, Caroline Thompson
Quest members have a wide diversity of interests and experiences. Each session is a chance to encounter something new or an encore of a talk that will be new to many members.
As a presenter, you will have free rein to develop a subject otherwise not covered in the curriculum. As an audience member, you may find a fresh interest or learn more about a topic you always wondered about.
