Please join us as we launch NewBridge University (NBU). A community of lifelong learners.
Lifelong learning is the use of both formal and informal learning opportunities throughout our lives, in order to foster the continuous development and improvement of the knowledge and skills needed for personal and professional fulfillment.
Starting in September, all of our current and new program offerings under our Diversity & Inclusion and other programming, will fall under NBU.
For each class, program, activity that you attend you will earn “credits.” These credits are redeemable for NewBridge swag at our end-of-year celebration. Credits will be tracked by a system that we are setting up now, and we will have a way for you to track credits too.
Continue to check out website, see our newsletter and talk to Deana Wright.
Inspired by the vibrant paintings of Alma Thomas, a Black artist known for her colorful, exuberant and abstract paintings, we will explore techniques that re-create and re-invent the beautiful work of this prolific artist. All materials will be supplied and delivered prior to each session.
Pilates focuses on postural symmetry, breath control and abdominal strength. Train your whole body, integrating the upper and lower extremities with the trunk.
