NORTH ADAMS – The next informational meeting for Massachusetts
College of Liberal Arts’ spring 2008 travel course to Italy will be held
Saturday, Sept. 15, at 3 p.m. in Bowman Hall Room 202. All are welcome.
"The Culture of Italy" is open to MCLA students, staff, faculty and
community members who enroll in the travel course. The nine-day trip –
which includes visits to Rome, Vatican City, Florence and Venice – will be
led by MCLA modern languages professor Graziana Ramsden, a native of Italy.
Ramsden also will teach the course designed to familiarize students with the past as well as the present aspects of Italian culture - history, art, socioeconomics and politics.
Guided tours will include art museums and venues, as well as historical sites. In addition, insights into Italian culture will be provided by visiting relevant sites such as mask-making shops and glass-blowing factories in Venice.
For more information, contact Ramsden at (413) 662-5399.
