Description<\/h2>\n

‘New Worlds of Science: The Heritage of East Asia’ was offered in conjunction with the Saturday University lecture series at the Seattle Asian Art Museum. \u00a0Each Saturday, educators attended the public lecture from 9:30 – 11:00 a.m. and then met for a writing workshop with Mary Barber Roberts from 11:00 a.m – 1:30 p.m.\u00a0 During the workshop, time was given to solitary writing in the art galleries in response to the morning lecture. The group then reconvened to share working drafts. The workshop was meant to nurture educators as writers through self-reflection and group discussion.<\/p>\n
