Activities, Tours & Field Trips

Activities

Explore, connect, and enjoy something new with OLLI friends.

OLLI activities are member-organized experiences that take learning and connection beyond the classroom. From educational outings and local workshops to cultural experiences, social gatherings, and regional adventures, activities offer another way to experience OLLI.

Unlike our multi-session courses, activities are typically single-session experiences held outside regular class times and are offered throughout the year. Many are available to members at no additional cost.
