MONDAYS 6:00 TO 8:00 PM, Jan 11 thru March 15, 2010. No Class on Jan 18 & Feb 15.

St George, Utah, Sun River Community Center, Multi-Purpose Room

Open to Everyone- You don’t have to be a resident of Sun River to attend there- Come enjoy a beautiful facility with a BIG SCREEN! Thanks to the new I-15 Interchange, Sun River is now only minutes from "downtown" St George.

You can’t understand the beautiful rock art of Ancient Native Americans, if you don’t understand the people who made it. Who were the Anasazi? Why did they “disappear”? Well, they didn’t- they were they ancestors of our modern Pueblo people. We should be asking “Why did the great culture that began In Chaco Canyon fall apart? What happened next? Where did the people go?” We will trace the story of the Anasazi, and their migrations, throughout the Southwest, loosely based on the outline found in Craig Child’s book, “The House of Rain”. Come journey with us throughout the Southwest, and follow these people, their culture, and their rock art. We have a variety of all new or updated media, including Power Point Presentations/Lectures, Hand-outs, Videos and DVDs. Class participation is encouraged, and classes are FUN as well as informative.
