The WEA has issued its Term 4 programme with a mix of some golden oldies and some topical new subjects to get your teeth into.
These include old favourites like armchair travel, creative writing and painting. There are also a number of weekend activities, annual lectures and other discussion groups.
The full programme can be downloaded from here.
Here are some highlights:
- A series of lectures on what the Art Gallery has been doing outside its own walls
- Two current affairs lectures with a focus on housing low income earners in the rebuild and new social housing planned for Hornby based on the Abbeyfield concept
- Winners and Losers -tools for analysing the misuse of social and economic power
- How to make ecocleaning products
- A followup from the Rio Earth Summit and a UN Conference on sustainable development
- Linwood cemetery
- American culture and literature in the 1950s
- Aesop’s Fables
- Tai Chi
- Emotional self help care workshop
- Rethinking retirement
- Mah Jong
- Arguments, Reasoning and Trickery
Some of these activities are free, some run over a weekend but most are one or two hours long and attract a small cost. Courses are held at venues in the North West (St Margaret’s in Farringdon Road), central city (Gloucester Street) and 46 Hawke Street in New Brighton.
