Join Professor Betsy Pierce for an illustrated journey through a recent sabbatical spent living, wandering, and learning in Greece's ancient capital. Drawing on personal photographs and stories gathered along the way, this 90-minute session moves beyond the postcard version of Athens to explore the city as it's actually lived in: the markets and neighborhood tavernas, the ruins that sit quietly alongside modern apartment blocks, the rituals of daily life that unfold under a winter sun still warm enough for citrus trees to bloom.
