Spring Course Proposals Welcomed
Prospective Instructors: Share Your Knowledge!
Click here for more information and the online course proposal form, accessed via a link on the left-hand side of the webpage. The earlier a proposal is received, the greater the likelihood of getting your preferred class time and classroom. Please bear in mind that the OLLI office will be closed during Christmas week, and you may want to submit proposals early while support is available in case technical issues arise.

Do you know someone who would be a great teacher? OLLI welcomes instructors for a wide range of topics, and the volunteer Curriculum Committee helps new instructors with information and mentoring. Instructors need not be OLLI members to teach.
Invitation to Sing!
OLLI members and friends, join us for a Christmas Carol Sing-Along in French and English and even a few verses in other languages at the Ashland Senior Center at Hunter Park at 1699 Homes Avenue near Walker Elementary School , on Wednesday, December 18, 12:30-1:30 pm . No need to be polylingual, you can hum along and smile to those familiar lovely melodies, when it's not your language! 

Led by OLLI volunteer Instructors Louis Kohler and Richard Jacquot, along with members of this fall's OLLI French Caroling class.
