The Coburn Free Library recently announced that the Umbrella Academy (no connection to the Netflix Series) is back; and will henceforth be known as the Coburn Academy.
The Umbrella Academy, which disbanded during COVID, was styled as a local TED talk group. The Coburn Academy will continue that tradition and meet every third Tuesday of the month at 5:30 p.m.
The first session of the new group was Oct. 18, “The Art of the Adage” with George Lowman, where the world of language was explored, one adage at a time.
The remaining Coburn Academy events for 2022 include Ed Nizalowski, who will talk about “Newark Valley’s UFO Encounter” and Dec. 20, with “Disney’s Nine Old Men & Friends” with Corinne Moshier.
All are welcome and community members are encouraged to suggest topics, and / or speak on topics they are knowledgeable about. Contact Corinne Moshier or Meredith Gallaro at the Coburn Free Library by calling (607) 687-3520 for more information.
