LOOKING FOR A NEW ADVENTURE THIS SPRING? INFORMATION SESSIONS January 15 and 17 (10:30-11:30am)
We are Lifelong Learners: An Independent Collaborative. Come learn about the vibrant programs we offer year-round, and the opportunities to continue to learn and to make new friends. Offerings are both in-person and on Zoom. LLAIC is a peer-run secular organization that offers affordable classes and enrichment programs for seniors interested in ongoing learning and socializing. Courses are taught by skilled members who enjoy sharing their knowledge, passions, and experiences. Our classes range from opera to mathematics, from literature and history to science, from art and music to social and political issues.
And your membership covers our free Wintersession Program (1/14-2/6), all on Zoom! Write to membership@llaic.org for a Zoom invite by January 14 or 16.
Everyone went out of their way to be warm, gracious and welcoming to me as a new member. I look forward to participating more actively as time goes on.
