Author Spotlight Series 2024

What is it? — It's sort of like OLLI's Brown Bag Lecture Series but with a couple twists...

Series Description — Our region is home to a variety of terrific authors who write a wide assortment of books. This monthly series of interviews will introduce us to some of these interesting, local writers and their books.

An Added Benefit  Your class fee is a donation to the Sierra College Food Pantry. One hundred percent of the registration proceeds made from the Author Spotlight Lunch Pail Series will be donated to the Sierra College Food Pantry. Thank you for joining our cause to help end student food insecurity on our campuses and in our community. 

The Food Pantry is open to all Sierra College students experiencing food insecurity regardless of income. The Food Pantry’s stock consists of a variety of non-perishable items. Students must be currently enrolled at Sierra College to use the food pantry. There is a Sierra College Food Pantry located at both the Rocklin and Grass Valley campuses, which gives scores of local homeless and food insecure youth a weekly box of food. More information can be found on the Sierra College Food Pantry webpage or Click Here!

Thank you, OLLI members, for your support of this crucial resource for our Sierra College student body!
