Athens has one of the most vibrant and unique downtowns in the Southeast. It is continually reinventing itself through public art to become a creative center that has a huge impact on our community. Downtown's outdoor museum includes the iconic "We Let the Dawgs Out" Bulldawgs; Project Ginkgo lamp post mosaics; murals; and Harold Rittenberry's metal sculptures that tell a story. You'll learn where the ideas for Athens' unique public art come from, how it is funded, and who the artists are. Downtown Athens is truly a work of art.

PLEASE NOTE: The date and time of this class has been changed from 2/12 to May 7 at 10AM. The class will explore fascism as a form of political governance characterized by ending the rule of law and building a social movement focused on scapegoats. As a case study, we will look at the rise of fascism in Germany, although the first fascist movement rose in Italy with occurrences in several other countries as well. A conundrum of fascism is whether it can ever be ended from within once it comes to power. There will be an opening presentation and plenty of time for questions and discussion.

We will examine how geologists recognize and study asteroid and comet impacts in Earth's past. We will also investigate the occurrences of meteorite falls in Georgia including the recent McDonough meteorite. And we will explore the record of much larger impacts preserved in the rocks of our state, including the fallout from the Chesapeake Bay impact 35.5 million years ago that rained down across the Coastal Plain and the enormous 220-kilometer-diameter Roosevelt impact structure that formed more than 800 million years ago when a rock almost 30 kilometers wide penetrated the crust of west-central Georgia.

Dr. Armitage will educate and entertain with his Tales From The Garden. Was there really someone called Joe Pye? Of all the flowers in the world, why is the poppy the flower of remembrance? What do bachelor's buttons have to do with bachelors, and why is a dogwood called a dogwood? It has nothing to do with dogs. Enjoy the stories behind the common names of plants we know. Smile and learn.
