APL / CAE Course Update – April 2018
Another Perspective on Learning (aka Richard Stone) has successfully completed another round of lecture presentations for Melbourne’s Council for Adult Education. These included new short courses exploring the art of the Post Impressionists and the life and writings of George Orwell. Courses on Renaissance Florence and Medieval France once again proved popular. The Sunday evening Music/Travel sessions at the Forest Hill Retirement Village are continuing to please residents and guests. The final operas of Rossini, the songs of Noel Coward and the first home grown Australian opera have been enjoyed in recent weeks.
Coming up during the next few months are CAE Short Courses addressing a range of topics. These include: Literature and the Great War, Oscar Wilde, Italian Renaissance art, the French Impressionists, the Cold War, early Twentieth Century painting, Nineteenth Century Australian history and the Spanish poet Federico Garcia Lorca. The latter two will connect directly with a NGV exhibition and a MTC production.
More APL National Gallery of Victoria visits and “in-house” sessions on great artists, literature and historical topics will also be offered during April and May.
