Learning in Retirement Presents 65-Plus Opportunities to Learn Something New at 国产AV

VALDOSTA — Learning in Retirement is excited to kick off another action-packed season of meeting the educational, physical, intellectual, and social needs of 国产AV’s South Georgia and North Florida friends and neighbors.

A member-led and 国产AV-sponsored organization, Learning in Retirement offers area residents 50 years of age and older nearly 70 opportunities to learn something new during Spring Semester 2024. The program lineup features special events, excursions and tours, topics that are simply “good to know,” and classes in the areas of health and fitness, computers and technology, fine arts, literature, leisure, crafts, history, social studies, and science.

The Spring Learning in Retirement season begins Monday, Jan. 29, and continues through early May. The group will host a Happy New Year kick-off luncheon for returning and prospective members from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Wednesday, Jan. 24. The cost for this catered event is $14 per person; the deadline to reserve a seat at the table is 5:30 p.m. Wednesday, Jan. 17.

Founded in January 1996, Learning in Retirement provides a unique opportunity for cultural growth, lifelong learning, and recreation. The program offerings and curriculum are chosen, designed, and often led by the members, encouraging peer learning and active member participation.

Learning in Retirement capitalizes on the strengths and experiences of older adults, empowering them to continue learning, expand their horizons, and enhance their personal development.

Membership costs $75 per person per semester — fall and spring —and allows members to participate in as many Learning in Retirement classes and activities as their schedules can accommodate. Yearly memberships are available for $135, when purchased in the fall. A few special activities require an additional fee, which is noted in advance.

New members are always welcome.  

The Office of Professional and Community Education (PACE) at 国产AV hosts Learning in Retirement at University Center Entrance 1, located at 1215 North Patterson Street.

国产AV PACE is committed to enhancing the quality of life in the region by providing educational, artistic, cultural, technological, and economic development activities and programs.
