A FANTASTIC 15TH ANNIVERSARY YEAR



Over 1,000 people of all ages and backgrounds attended the study groups, programs and special diversity events held this last year by the Academy for Lifelong Learning at Empire State College in Saratoga Springs, New York.

A.L.L. also received wonderful support from area businesses and organizations that sponsored various diversity events. Saratoga Today, the local newspaper and Star 101.3 radio station, the program media sponsors, gave them great publicity with feature articles, newspaper ads, radio interviews and public service announcements.

The program also forged new community partnerships over this last year. The Chinese Community Center, the local Indian community for the Culture of India and the Albany Set Dancing Club are new resources for A.L.L. programs.

A.L.L. also formed their first intergenerational partnership. They worked with the local high school’s Graphic Design class to produce the eye-catching posters, post cards and programs for the Culture of India and Irish events.

The Office of College Relations at Empire State College funded their beautiful special anniversary year program brochures and the college print shop handled the production of the brochures as well as the marketing pieces for the India and Irish events.

Congratulations to A.L.L. for a fantastic 15th year and for demonstrating how rewarding it is to work with both a program host and the local community.
