Self-Publish Your Writing

Leave a legacy of your memories. In this fun, interactive hands-on course you will create a sample manuscript for self-publishing your own content. You may have written a few stories, completed some chapters of your memoirs, written a few family history pages, recorded oral interviews, have photographs from old albums, or worked on your family tree but have never shared it with your

family and friends. Where do you start and what are the options for sharing your legacy on a limited budget? You can benefit from this class if you are interested in learning about independent self-publishing using local printing and Cloud computing services. This class will help you learn practical tools, techniques, and give you hands-on experience. Fee: $85

Introduction to Buddhism

The teachings of Buddha, called Dharma, are easy to understand yet extremely profound. Buddhist philosophy helps us understand our various states of mind and overcome those that cause pain and problems. Each class will begin with a brief meditation followed by a teaching, Q&A, and conclude with a meditation. Participants will learn how to incorporate basic Buddhist teachings into dailylife, transforming the negative state of mind into a more positive outlook.

Fee: $85
