IAI CoursesTHE GREATEST ADVENTURELOVE IN THE TIME OF TINDERApril 28th – 30thJoin us at the globe for an enlightening weekend of workshops, talks and debates. Hear from world-leading thinkers and make significant, lasting change in your life

The meaning of love is transforming. With the rise of dating apps and new technologies, connecting with others has never been easier. But whilst Tinder reached 50 million users last year, studies show that we are lonelier than ever.

Once, the study of love was deemed of vital importance, considered by Plato the greatest of all subjects. But modern philosophy has seen discourse on love fall largely by the wayside. With all this it’s easy to wonder: why does the modern world seem so hostile to love?

The Greatest Adventure brings together leading psychologists, relationship experts and matchmakers to provide an answer. Over three days you will learn:the science behind attraction, how to communicate better in love, how to be more confident and how to choose the right partner.

With complimentary welcome drinks and exclusive entertainment every night don’t miss your chance to learn from the world’s best and mingle with kindred spirits.

Book now at www.globeathay.org or contact [email protected]

Art at the globe at hay

Our exhibitions are in integral part to the atmosphere of our cafe and event spaces. Artistic expression is something that we deeply value here at the globe and we are always proud to join up with local artists and showcase their work.

Our current exhibition, which will culminate in the spring, is no exception. Brought to us by Winslow Court, a SENAD group adult residential care facility in Bromyard that provides education, care and community support for the most complex, vulnerable and hard to place young people and adults, this is one of our most important art exhibitions.

One of the most important traits of the human condition is the desire to communicate and the globe at hay and Winslow Court believe art is one of the means we use to achieve this.

All work you see exhibited in the venue is designed, produced and created by resiendents and care workers at this facility.

All work is for sale and proceeds will go toward facilitatory art funding within Winslow Court itself. Running until March 2017, this is a rare opportunity to see and discover previously unveiled work.

For all artwork and sale enquiries, please email [email protected]
