| Description: | This month's topic is Tokyo: Biography of a City
Join Active Minds as we tell the story of the world’s most populous metropolis at 37 million inhabitants. From its roots as a small fishing village in the 15th century, Tokyo has survived a myriad of disasters on its way to becoming one of the most important cities in the world. A truly international city, Tokyo is a hub for global business, Japanese culture, and regional transportation. In addition to Tokyo’s history, we will also take a look at the current and future challenges and opportunities for the city.
About Active Minds:
Active Minds started in 2002 as a series of poetry classes in a church basement in Denver. Before long, it grew to include other courses focusing on contemporary global issues, historical themes, and other matters of importance. The original audience was primarily senior citizens, but over time Active Minds has grown to serve adults of all ages through programming at book stores, libraries, and corporations. Today Active Minds provides programming to over 200 organizations and has over 30 highly qualified instructors on staff. John Henderson and Zane Robertson formed Active Minds out of a deeply felt belief that lifelong learning is central to a life well lived. We are inspired by members of our own families who embodied this spirit and dedicate this work to them.
