�Learning at Home-Learning in School� is geared to parents of preschool age children, but the techniques and principles considered will also be useful for families with older students.

The workshop will be held on Saturday, February 25th from 10:30am to 12:30pm at the Symposia bookstore in Hoboken, NJ. Registration is limited to 12 and the fee is $25 per participant ($40 per couple).

You may register by phone (201-963-0909) or email (info@symposia.us). Payment in advance, by February 20th, is necessary in order to assure participation.

�Learning at Home-Learning in School� will be led by Andrew Lerner, Ph.D. who is a school psychologist for the New York City Department of Education. Dr. Lerner has also taught Theories of Learning and Cognitive Psychology at New School University in Manhattan. He may be contacted through Symposia.

Openness, consideration and respect are the foundation elements of vibrant community experiences. The Symposia Conversation Project is an experiment in community dialogue where people of different beliefs and points of view can engage in meaningful discourse that enlightens, challenges and enriches the participants.

Food will be served at 7:30 and the conversation will start at 8 p.m.

Event organized by Andy Lerner.

The event,sponsored by the Library Board of Trustees, will also mark the opening of a special exhibit of a dozen photographs of Dr.King that Fernandez recently donated to the Library’s permanent collection. These photos will be displayed at the Library during February as part of the Library’s Black History Month activities and may be viewed during regular Library hours.

Fernandez’s photographs have appeared in many publications and been exhibited in museums around the world, including the Museum of Modern Art and the International Center of Photography in New York, the University of Tokyo Library and the Biblioteque Nationale in Paris. The photographer served for 22 years as head of the Parsons School of Design/New School Photography Department. His many exhibitions include photos of the Hispanic community, the protest movement of the 1960s, a series on bikers and the Hoboken waterfront. Last year the Hoboken Historical Museum exhibited his “Like Family, Photographs of Hoboken Shipyard Workers.”
