Course Description:
One hundred years ago, the artistic and political revolutions of the Harlem Renaissance were in full swing. The unmistakable sounds, images, words, and conventions of the era indelibly shaped American culture.
Featuring the visionary works of writers, artists, and thinkers of the Harlem Renaissance, this exhibition examines the creative and intellectual pursuits that defined Black American identity and political consciousness- and shaped the ideas and arts of a time and place that would proudly influence future generations. The Albert and Shirley Small Special Collections Library is fortunate to hold a wide selection of influential books, magazines, illustrations, and manuscripts by these Harlem Renaissance creators. https://virginia.app.box.com/s/y5lptwm22dwz1hbathfqzbxgc1wfgee7
OLLI AT UVA IS INTRODUCING SHARED INTEREST GROUPS (SIGs) An OLLI Shared Interest Group is formed by a nucleus of OLLI members with a shared interest in the same subject, and who are willing to participate as active, rather than as passive, learners. SIGs provide ongoing learning, friendship and support around the shared interest. Each group is different depending on its focus, and all provide interesting lifelong learning opportunities as well as a fun social experience that is ongoing through semesters and class cycles.
If you would like to start a SIG, call 434-923-3600.
Proposals for SIGs are taken at any time.
As SIGs are created, OLLI members will be notified through the weekly Eblast and invited to join. When at least six
members have expressed interest, the first meeting can be scheduled.
To join an established SIG, members ask to have their names placed on the email distribution list for the SIG, and
start participating. It’s that simple.
