Ever wanted to learn how to juggle or become a backyard bee-keeper? Know someone who could benefit from instruction in “Accent Reduction”? Want to hear harrowing first hand experiences about survival in Antarctica? These, and about 200 other fascinating and useful lectures and classes (often by Baristaville residents) are what Lisa Redburn, Executive Director of the Adult School of Montclair thinks will keep Baristaville rocking. And judging from the 3,000 students that keep coming back for more each semester, she’s right.
The Adult School catalogue appeared in our mailbox, but if you can’t wait for your copy to be delivered, visit their website now. Pick your passion, quickly. "Classes fill up very fast", says Lisa. And if any of our readers have a special talent they want to teach, or have suggestions for different classes, Lisa is planning next fall’s curriculum and wants to hear from you before Feb. 9.

Tonight, high school students from Baristaville and neighboring towns get to showcase their art at Montclair State University's Life Hall Art Gallery, at the 16th Annual Congressional Art Show and Competition. Hosted by U.S. Rep. Bill Pascrell, Jr. (D-N.J.), the show spotlights student artists from area high schools.
The competition is part of a nationwide program held in congressional districts around the country. First place artists in each district get their work hung in the U.S. Capital for one year. The runner up to this year's competition will have his/her art work displayed in Pascrell's district office. To attend, enter at the Normal Avenue entrance and park in parking deck (free parking vouchers available!)
