Events & ISSI Kids
ISSI Orientation - Sunday, July 28
We want you to be prepared for your first day of classes, so we’re hosting an orientation! Meet your instructors, pick up class materials, and get acquainted with the campus—all before the first day of classes. We’ll be on hand to address any questions you may have and help you prepare for a successful start.
Lecture with Dr. Rosenberg - Tuesday, July 30
What is all the fuss about Las Meninas? Painted 368 years ago by the Spaniard Diego de Velázquez, this huge canvas (roughly 10 x 9 feet)—the signature piece of Madrid’s Prado Museum—continues to ask big questions, questions that are as relevant in the twenty-first century as they were in the seventeenth. What is beauty? What is art? How does power perpetuate itself and how is art involved in that perpetuation? What is nobility? How do humans represent the human experience, and what are the limits and the challenges of the act of representation? What is real and what is truth? We will explore these questions during our evening together.
Spanish Wine Walk - Wednesday, July 31
Spanish Kids Camp | Monday, July 29 - Friday, August 2
While you're brushing up on your Spanish skills at ISSI, the young ones can be learning and enjoying Tahoe too! LTCC's CONNECT Community Education program has a wide array of fun and enlightening activities for kids ages 6-14. Beginning Spanish speakers can expect to learn the basics in vocabulary and conversation. The more advanced Spanish speaker will be challenged in higher level conversation.
