A new year…A new program!
“Get Smart-er”
We have a remarkable and varied amount of talent within our Hazak group!
In January we will be launching a monthly series of talks presented by fellow Hazakians.
We’re planning a wide variety of engaging topics and you’re bound to return home feeling a bit ‘smart-er’!
These will take place on the third Wednesday of each month from 4:00-5:30 PM in the Rodef library. First up, January 21st is Rodef member, Ed Stein.
Ed Stein was the editorial cartoonist for the Rocky Mountain News in Denver, Colo.
Stein drew editorial cartoons and published a popular local daily comic strip called: Denver Square.
His work was printed in newspapers across the world and syndicated by United Media.
In September 2010, Stein launched a syndicated national comic strip: Freshly Squeezed.
He has earned numerous regional and national awards for his work.
No sign up quite yet, just save the date.
More information about presentations for Feb. March and April will be posted soon!
