Education Team

Team Chair: Joan C.    100granniesiowacity@gmail.com    facebook               

Mission: The Education Team plans and presents the Grannies’ annual October Film Series and the March Lecture Series for the public. This can involve previewing a number of films for consideration.  We also plan and present storytelling activities at our area’s public libraries. We are often involved in tabling activities at environmental events. We present books to school libraries every year. A series of “Granny Green” books for young readers has been published, written and illustrated by members.

Announcements

Join us for our annual spring lecture series this March.  See the dates and line-up of 5 outstanding speakers here.

Each year, 100Grannies donates books to the Iowa City School District.  See the books the teacher librarians selected for this year here. We welcome donations to help fund this activity [use the DONATE tab in the menu bar to contribute]

Each fall, 100Grannies Education Team selects films for our annual fall film series.  See the films selected for showing last October here.
