If you’ve been missing AAPLD’s adult programs, you’ll find a growing list of virtual program offerings on our website, under the Programs and Events tab. Most programs are presented live on Zoom and recorded for later viewing on YouTube.
Here’s a sample of what’s coming up for May, June and July.
Fitness/Wellness/Health
Feeling tired and stressed? Give one of our wellness programs a try, and enjoy a workout in the privacy of your home. Tai Chi is an ancient Chinese martial art that combines gentle exercise and meditation. Yin Yoga focuses on connecting muscle tissue. Programs are available for all ability levels, and Chair classes are great options for seniors and those with physical limitations.
History/Current Events
Popular speaker Barry Bradford will be presenting two programs this spring. On May 17, Barry will present Political Satire, which examines political humor from the writings of Mark Twain, to Will Rogers to late night host and commentator Stephen Colbert. In June, Barry’s topic is American Royalty, and the stories of Americans who married into royal families—for better and worse.
Also in June, join Gary Wenstrup for a look at Motown Records and hitmakers Stevie Wonder, the Supremes, the Temptations and more.
In July, journalist and statistician Matt Baron will present Go Figure: Lies, and Damn Lies, about how presidential campaigns use statistics. Learn to tell fact from fiction with this informative workshop.
