Our Instructors

Encore is proud of its volunteer faculty who bring commitment, passion and knowledge to each course offering. These instructors come from our membership, the SUNY Orange faculty and community experts. For example, this year we welcome Matt Pfisterer Thrall Library Director, who will teach the "Films For everyone" course; Clifton Patrick and his "Made in Chester", and Marlena Lange with hiking, land preservation and "Book Club" courses.

New and veteran faculty continually propose new courses; their ideas come from members' suggestions and their own special interests. Some, but not all, of our veteran faculty, are included below.
