The Central Lakes College in Brainerd, Minnesota will focus on Spain as their next topic for Cultural Thursday. The program  starts at noon, October 4th in the Chalberg Theatre.

     Admission is free.

      There will be a variety of presenters, including instructor Victoria Montes and CLC students who participated in the 3-week Study Abroad course at the Universidad de Sevilla.

     Dave Kobilka, a student in the course said, "Sevilla and its surroundings are layer upon layer of human history.  One could spend months touring and studying the history or art, culture, religion and architecture all in a radius of 100 miles of the city.  People have been   living there thousands of years."

     The students spent time with the people of Sevilla practicing their Spanish speaking skills.  A few field trips were taken to Italica, the 1st Roman city, and Aracena, a mountain community that has a castle and caves.
