F
or the past ten years, Summer Sessions & Lifelong Learning has created summer events and programs to encourage the Fairbanks community to become part of the fabric of the UAF campus. Many of these have been free and some have become annual fixtures, like the Discover Alaska lecture series and the Really Free Market. In this guide you will find 47 events that span 14 weeks of summer, including the new Magical Mondays where parents and children can do hands-on science projects together. Also new this summer are day camps for children entering second through sixth grade. Different weeks will focus on the topics of visual arts, music, bugs, dinosaurs and iPad use — see details on page 10. Adult learners can investigate CALL, Community Adventures in Lifelong Learning, which gives community members the opportunity to sit in on UAF classes. Read on page 7 about this program and how it resulted from a conversation at a hockey game! Each year we strive to make our programs relevant and exciting for you and your family. Please continue to let us know how we can do an even better job.
