What's Happening: A New Collaboration
This spring Brookline Adult & Community Education and the
Clay Center for Science and Technology are proud to collaborate in presenting stimulating lectures
and classes in a stellar location. Located on top of the highest hill in Brookline, the Clay Center
is a recently constructed five-story addition of classrooms and a high-powered observatory at the
renowned Dexter and Southfield Schools. Dedicated to advancing astronomical research and education,
this multi-purpose state-of-the-art building is home to a deep-space telescope capable of viewing
stars, galaxies, planets, and satellites both day and night. Other exceptional features of the new
