IN-PERSON / ENGLISH: The Practicing Stoic by Ward Farnsworth
Details
This is our IN-PERSON event for Saturdays (no Zoom link available). We meet every 2 weeks.
Our new venue is Panera Bread in College Park. It's on Orange Avenue, just north of Princeton. It's on the FIRST FLOOR of the AdventHealth medical building. See the address below. This location offers coffee, drinks, a full menu, plus air-conditioned, free parking, a community room for up to 15 people!
SERIES
Our new series is based on Ward Farnsworth’s book “The Practicing Stoic”, which explores many Stoic topics through the writings of Roman Stoics (Seneca, Epictetus, Marcus Aurelius) plus words from other philosophers (Cicero, Plutarch, Montaigne). This will expand our understanding of Stoic practices.

Parking is free. As you drive north on Orange Avenue, you will see the AdventHealth building on the right, then turn right, go 2 blocks, turn right again into the parking garage (free parking). Most parking spaces are open, just avoid the reserved spaces.
TIME
The meeting is from Noon to 2PM. No worries if you're late... it's better to be late than not show up. Also, we take a break half-way in the meeting for refreshment and a bathroom break.
ZOOM LINK
Since meeting is in-person only, so no Zoom link is available.
