OLLI at Widener presents its June seminar series beginning Thursday, June 6, and continuing each Thursday during the month. The first session allows you to travel through time for a unique look at artist John Singleton Copley, through the eyes of his wife Sukey, portrayed for this seminar by Jaan Troltenier.

This immersive historical and cultural experience begins an eclectic season of learning with OLLI (Osher Lifelong Learning Institute) at Widener University. Subsequent sessions explore brain health, musical echoes of World War II, music reading demystified, and origami.

OLLI seminars are free and open to the public, though you must RSVP to OLLI@widener.edu or 610-499-4279. All seminars are in Widener’s University Center; parking is in the Old Main lot across the street.
