It’s time to announce our schedule of public shows for Spring 2019. The first show of the semester is “The Sky this Month” on January 27 and 31. All of our shows are free and open to the public and the campus community until seats are filled. Doors close when the show begins. Duration of the shows varies, but all are under an hour.
Following in the tradition of “Constellations across the Cultures” (2017) and “Gettysburgians Talk about Time” (2018), we are creating another in-house production this spring. The topic, chosen with our student assistants, will be the ethics of space exploration. The title is TBA, but it will debut on April 14. Watch this blog for updates as we work on it.
Scroll down for the full schedule. You can also download it as a PDF or access it via the college’s events calendar.
