Jun 1 @ 11:30 am - 12:30 pm
Event Series (See All)

Open to out-of-towners age 60+ starting April 6th for $20/series

Langston Hughes (1901-1967) was a Harlem poet, playwright, novelist and short story writer. He was a leading member of The Harlem Renaissance and was greatly influenced by the poetry of Walt Whitman. His poems continually ask the question: What does it mean to be an American? We will study many of his iconic poems and read three of his short stories. Students should purchase Vintage Hughes, published by Vintage Books in paperback that retails for $14.

Preregistration is required. Please call 978-929-6652 to register.
