Exploring Eastern Faith Traditions through Art - a course taught by Dr. Irene Weigel
The 12 week course on Eastern Faiths will be held on Tuesdays beginning March 16, 2010 and will run through June 8th (no class on March 30) from 7-9 PM. This course is a repeat of a very popular two-semester course on eastern and western faiths, and has been adapted to include reference to artwork at the Museum of Fine Arts. The class will be held in the lower level meeting room of Cary Memorial Library and is offered free of charge. Registration is required to receive downloadable handouts for each class. Registration will begin on February 1st (and not before) by emailing sconway20@gmail.com with intentions to participate. Attendance at all classes is not mandatory but it is highly recommended as is early registration since the program was a "sellout" last year. Dr Weigel will lecture for 3 weeks each on Hinduism, Buddhism, and Chinese Religions with a fourth week for an optional book discussion on a book relevant to each religion. The second semester will highlight Western Faiths including Judaism, Christianity and Islam and will run from September through December 2010. A separate registration is required for Western Faiths beginning August 1st.
