While in the popular mind the name Andy Warhol is synonymous with the ephemera of consumer culture - Campbell
Soup cans, S&H Green Stamps, Coca-Cola bottles – his artistic output has proven to be one of the most influential
and enduring creative endeavors of the twentieth century. Through his promiscuous use of media, Warhol turned his
unerring eye to the major defining themes of the last century providing a subtly subversive commentary on
consumerism, mass-production, celebrity, death and disaster. This course will explore Warhol’s early life and its influence on his most important works as well as looking at celebrity and consumer culture. Have you had your 15 minutes of fame!

What: CLE:LOST IN TRANSLATION
What your dog heard is not what you think you said.
People psychologist and dog behavior expert, Dr. Heide Coppotelli, along with some of her four-footed friends,
presents her third class for CLE. Her intent is to help people understand why their dog doesn’t stop jumping, pulling,
chewing, and barking when we try so hard to teach them manners. Coppotelli will cover differences of perception,
leadership, affection and solitude between dogs and their human owners. Your dog will be impressed with your new
understanding when you come home!
