OLLI (Osher Lifelong Learning Institute) is dedicated to serving the diverse needs and interests of all its community members. We achieve this by offering a blend of learning styles:
- Remote courses and workshops for those who prefer learning from home
- In-person courses and workshops for those who value face-to-face interaction
- Hybrid options that combine both remote and in-person elements
- Special interest groups for remote or in-person hobbies and interests
Our course offerings span a wide range of subjects, from art, line dancing, and history to physics, all taught by our brilliant volunteer faculty.
For those who like variety, OLLI offers the SAGE lecture series, held during the Fall and Spring terms. Every Tuesday morning, we host a hybrid lecture featuring a different expert speaker, covering various topics.
