RAISING ABLE BOYS Instructor: Richard Bondy, Intermediate School Guidance Counselor

Hello parents of boys! You love your boys very much, but perhaps you sometimes wonder about how to be a better parent. Perhaps your son is struggling in school. Perhaps you would like to understand what’s behind his anger or aggression or rambunctiousness. And what about Attention Deficit Disorder--how do you help your son with attention issues? Also, how can you maintain an emotional connection to your son? If you are wondering about some of these questions, I invite you to participate in a workshop that will help you understand and relate to your sons more effectively.

In this session, you will hear some of the most recent research about boys in our culture and discover effective ways to help boys at school and at home. You will have a chance to share some of your own experiences, and we will also do exercises to teach us what boys are about and what they are contending with. And you will learn a number of ways to improve and maintain those very important connections to your son. Min 5Fee: $40 Wednesday#401 5/9 6:30 - 9:00 p.m.Hudson High School, Media Center

The Life and Operas of VerdiInstructor: Brian Suntken

2013 will mark the 200th anniversary of the birth of Giuseppe Verdi. By the time of Verdi’s birth, opera was completely ingrained into Italian culture and was the essential form of entertainment through which Italian culture expressed itself. Verdi brought Italian opera to unequaled heights, while preserving a quintessential characteristic of Italian art – functionality married to beauty – carried out with the art of sprezzatura, or “effortless mastery.” Verdi was a great dramatist and a great melodist at the same time, whose artistic evolution never ceased across the fifty-year span of his career.

Brian Suntken will explore the life of Giuseppe Verdi and six of his operas: Nabucco, Rigoletto, Il Trovatore, Don Carlo, Aida and Otello. If you have never met Brian or taken one of his courses then you are in for a real treat. Brian will take you on a journey of learning through stories, humor and his obvious love of the world of opera and the theater.
