LifeLong Learning Program

Beyond “Facts vs. Opinions”

Presenter: Ben Lennertz is a Professor of Philosophy at Colgate University specializing in the Philosophy of Language, Epistemology, and Philosophy of Mind. He is widely published and has received a number of fellowships and prizes. Ben will be presenting "Beyond 'Facts vs. Opinions'" at the monthly LifeLong Learning Program this Friday, March 29th, at 2:30pm held here at Arts at the Palace.

Many grade schools teach the fact/opinion distinction. In this course, we’ll discuss whether this distinction cuts off space for public debate – by presenting ‘facts’ as settled and ‘opinions’ as outside the realm of evidence and argument. We’ll explore whether there is a better way to conceptualize the underlying phenomena.

All classes are live and in-person. We will not be recording sessions.

Love Letters By A.R. Gurney - Hamilton Community Players Feat. Lauri Marshall & Ted Lenio

Love Letters By A.R. Gurney - Hamilton Community Players Feat. Lauri Marshall & Ted Lenio

"Love Letters" at The Palace Theater in Hamilton

Arts at the Palace in Hamilton, NY has announced a special Valentine’s event featuring A.R. Gurney’s Pulitzer Prize for Drama finalist, “Love Letters.” The play unfolds a half-century of notes, letters and cards exchanged between two characters played by local actors Laurie Marshall and Ted Lenio.

Gurney’s play chronologically covers ‘Melissa’ and ‘Andrew’s’ correspondence from early school days to maturity, as they discuss their dreams and disappointments, hopes and ambitions, victories and defeats. For over 35 years it has been performed by hundreds of famous actors too numerous to mention, who bring eclectic interpretations of contrasting characters who share what it means to be in a relationship or friendship, have a confidant, and/or be “in love.”

Lenio is a NYS and regional award-winning playwright, director and actor whose theatrical arc spans 45 years, beginning in Aspen, Colorado, as ‘Charlie Chan.’ He has especially enjoyed exploring more troubled characters as they come to better understand themselves and others.

“Ever since stage managing ‘Love Letters’ for the U.S. Embassy cultural attache and his wife in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, in the 1990s, I’ve wanted to reprise this play,” Lenio commented. “And ever since performing with Laurie in ‘Twelfth Night’ at the Rome Art and Community Center too many years ago, I’ve wanted to team up with her again,” he added.

Marshall’s theatrical background is similarly varied and also includes such distinctive characterizations as ‘Harpo Marx’ in “A Day in Hollywood, A Night in the Ukraine.” She has worked in props, costuming, stage managing, and made her directorial debut with “Hound of the Baskervilles.”

Complementing the play will be musical selections performed by pianist Jo Ann Geller and saxophonist Pete Ruben, both before the show and during intermission, which specifically relate to the characters’ lives.

The one-night-only performance is set for Friday, February 16, 7:30 pm (music at 7:00) at the Palace Theater, 19 Utica Street in Hamilton, NY.

Tickets are $10 and available at www.artsatthepalace.org. Beer, wine, and non-alcoholic beverages will be available for $4.

Life Long Learning

Climate Change and Extreme Weather in Central NY

Climate change poses a number of potential problems for the people of Central New York, including changes in the frequency and severity of extreme weather events. This lecture explores changes in thunderstorms, heavy rain, and flooding specifically, but will also address the potential for extreme heat events and drought.

Presenter: Adam Burnett has taught at Colgate since 1990. He received his Ph.D. in Geography from Michigan State University. His courses and research at Colgate focus generally on physical geography and environmental science, and more specially on the climate of the Northeastern United States. His specialty is jet stream variability and changes in lake-effect snow.

All classes are live and in-person. We will not be recording sessions.
