Join a SIG – Start a SIG!

OLLI SIGs are Shared Interest Groups

Any OLLI member can start one or attend one. Shared Interest Groups can meet whenever they want, even when OLLI is not in session. Many SIGs have been started by OLLI members who attended an OLLI class and wanted to keep getting together to pursue the activity or discussion with class members when the class was over.

Currently active SIGs:

Anthropology, Evolution, Animal Domestication
Astronomy Is Fun!
Come Work on Your Watercolor Goals
Common Good
Day Hiking
Drawing for Beginners
Knitting for Fun
Science Fiction Movie Group
Sharing Dreams
The 3 Principles of Sydney Banks

If you’d like to start a new SIG, contact SIG Coordinator Barb Barasa at [email protected] or 541-621-2739.
