Presented By: Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (50+)
Women and Aging through Literature and Reflective Writing
Share How You Feel
This study group uses essays, poems and memoir excerpts about aging written by women as prompts for reflective writing.
Following a discussion, members write during class and voluntarily share their writing with the group. Sample prompts might include: write about a fear you have about growing older; describe a strength or positive attribute that has emerged in you as you’ve grown older. This is not a creative writing class, but an opportunity to reflect more deeply about what aging means to us as women.
Instructor Beth Spencer is a geriatric social worker, avid reader and writer with decades of teaching experience and will lead this study group for those 50 and above for two hours on Thursdays from October 19 through November 16.
