Who Are We?

Lifelong Learners is a program of courses developed by older adults for older learners who are 50-plus. The individuals who organize these courses believe that growth and development are vital goals for everyone at every age. They also believe that involvement with others and mental stimulation will keep your mind healthy.


How Are We Unique?

We offer courses in a friendly and relaxed setting. There is no educational requirement, homework or exams! Plus our classes are kept small to maintain an informal atmosphere.

Also our programming is based in the needs and interests of older learners. How do we know the interests of our students? We listen and take suggestions. So if you have an interest or a suggestion for a course, let us know. It may become one of our future topics!
