COURSES – SPRING 2026
(Under Development — Subject to Change)
/ Interdisciplinary / TIME: THE WONDER OF IT

Coordinators: Andrea Irvine, David Bartash, Marion Schulthies

Think of “time” as our common starting point – and then watch it unfold in every direction.

Each class brings something new: a dive into numbers, a spark from Tesla, a reflection on early man, a time capsule. Our presenters shape the theme to fit their passions, making every session unpredictable and engaging.
