arcadia greece4The Arcadia Center offers two, three-week summer programs in Greece. These programs are designed as immersive adventures through the world of Archaic, Classical, and Hellenistic Greece. As a participant, you will be submerged in the history, art and culture of a society that was both radically different and profoundly similar to our own.

On the Trail of Alexander the Great - Greek History, Art and Architecture of the Hellenistic Age (3 credits)
Here's your chance to develop a clearer understanding of one of history's most enigmatic and mysterious figures. Your studies will begin in Athens, and then take you to Greek Macedonia, the island of Samos, and the Aegean coast as you delve into the life and times of Alexander the Great and his contemporaries. You'll visit relevant monuments and museums as well as learn about Hellenistic civilization.
