UNLESS OTHERWISE NOTED, RE-SCHEDULED CLASSES WILL BE HELD IN THE SAME PLACE AND TIME AS ORIGINALLY SCHEDULED. Michael Park's "Human Races" class scheduled for 2/12 has been re-scheduled for 3/20. The SS-03 "Climate Change" seminar has been extended to include a 3/6 class to make up for the 2/13 weather-related cancellation. Jane Newpeck's SS-07 "Epics, Anyone?" seminar scheduled for March will meet in Seabury's Media Room instead of the Britton Room.

        INTERESTING PREVIEW MEETING WELL ATTENDED

On Thursday, January 17th, many current and new ALP members gathered in the beautiful Seabury Chapel to socialize, enjoy refreshments, hear a dynamic guest speaker, and learn about the many and varied course offerings for our Spring semester.

Larry Alan Smith,  Dean of the Hartt School at the University of Hartford  graciously agreed to substitute for Gregory Woodward as our guest speaker.

Speaking on the topic "Elevating the Soul: Learning and the Aesthetic Experience,"  Smith shared many of his compositions which delighted the audience.

Seminar presenters spoke about their course offerings and were also  available to answer questions following their presentations. It looks to be a wonderful semester!  Participants are reminded that there is a coupon in the ALP Horn for non-members to use to sample a class or to share with a friend. Refreshments provided by the Seabury staff were enjoyed by all!


 SEABURY PARKING FOR CLASSES 

Seabury is pleased to offer parking for all ALP classes at the convenient Hilltop Parking Lot at the north end of our campus (near the raised garden beds and pickleball court). After parking, ALP members may enter the door with the large awning across the parking lot where there will be signs to direct you to your classrooms. Park in unnumbered spaces only.

For special events like the preview meetings or annual meeting, we will continue to provide shuttle service to Seabury's Main Entrance from the parking lot at the Chinese Baptist Church adjacent to Seabury. 

If you have difficulty walking from the Hilltop parking lot to your class, use the parking lot by the new chapel on your right as you enter Seabury. Then take the short walk to the main entrance. Valet parking is no longer available.

There is NO PARKING along the curb across from the main entrance. You will be ticketed!


SPECIAL NOTICE for those people with difficulty hearing:

Seabury's Heritage Hall and The Bishop's Chapel are equipped with a Hearing Loop, an "induction loop" system, which magnetically transmits sound to hearing aids and cochlear implants with telecoms (T-coils). With a simple switch, guests with hearing loss can hear from the microphone directly to the hearing aid. People with hearing loss are now experiencing a reality where hearing aids also serve as wireless loudspeakers, delivering clear, customized sound from inside their ears. Thank you, Seabury!


GET INVOLVED!

We could use more help.  If you would like to "give something back" to our Adult Learning Program in return for all that you've received (or are about to receive), please let an ALP board member know! At your next ALP session, let the registrar know that you are interested, and someone will get in touch to see how you can be of service.
