Classes & Activities

The OLLI curriculum committee annually develops hundreds of stimulating courses with a focus on high quality and engaging programs. Programs range from one time lectures, tours, workshops and day hikes to multi-session seminars and study groups. Programs are engaging, innovative, lively, sometimes hands on and always informative. There are no pre-requisites, test or exams, and no age restrictions. OLLI courses provide the ideal learning environment.
