Election 2024: Looking Back and Ahead

Every four years, Americans head to the polls to vote for the candidates of their choice. Some say that the 2024 election is the most consequential in our lifetime. Join us this fall for a series of lectures that reflects back on politicians, presidents and issues from the past, and forecasts what may be in store for 2025 and beyond.

Lectures are held on Mondays at 3 p.m. in Olm Fellowship Hall of Fairhaven Senior Services, 435 West Starin Road, Whitewater. All lectures are free and open to the public.
