Season Line-Up
We’ve put together another stellar line-up for our 52nd Season, featuring long-time ASC members, favorite speakers from the past and new friends we’ve yet to meet. We continue to Zoom all our programs, even when we meet in person – at our new location! See you face-to-face or in cyberspace!
Janet Booth, President
ASC has hybrid in-person/online meetings for some of our events, in addition to streaming all of them on Zoom. Beginning this season, our new meeting place is Pitkin Community Center, 30 Greenfield St., Wethersfield, CT. Our events in November, January, February, March and April will only be on Zoom.
Lectures
Members can attend lectures for free and will be sent the Zoom link automatically. Non-members can attend and will be emailed the link close to the event date, after paying the $10 non-member lecture fee using the registration button by the event listing. (NOTE: a link does not appear directly following payment and the deadline to register is the midnight before the lecture date.) Most lectures are preceded by an introduction to the topic in our “Pre-Lecture” (taught by an ASC member) for no additional charge. To join ASC, see our Membership page. Members receive a discount on workshops and other benefits.
Workshops
As part of our educational efforts, we offer workshops with the opportunity to roll up your sleeves, delve into a topic and get hands-on experience. We may break into small discussion groups, giving us time to get to know one another, look at the participants’ charts and exchange ideas stimulated by the workshop presenter(s).
The fee for each workshop is $40 for ASC members, $50 for non-members. (Use the drop-down box to select the appropriate fee when registering.) Attendance information (and Zoom link, if applicable) will be emailed to participants prior to the event – a link does not appear directly following payment.
