SPECIAL COVID-19 ​INFO

Lifespring continues to work toward the safe and much-anticipated return of in-person classes and gatherings. After consultation with other lifelong learning organizations and our host venue, the WJC, and a review of guidelines from national, state, and county agencies, the Board of Directors has determined that the Winter Presentations and the February 2022 mini-series, as well as the spring 2022 semester will be presented via Zoom. As the Covid-19 situation evolves, we may be able to offer hybrid learning opportunities in the 2021-2022 year, and even some in-person events depending on the most current scientific information and advice.

Welcome

Lifespring, an adult learning community, offers a broad range of noncredit educational activities for retired, semi-retired, and other adult participants. Lifespring’s goal is to provide diverse learning experiences for all its members, regardless of previous educational background. We recognize that many active retirees wish to continue to learn and grow and participate in an environment that is both social and encouraging. In this venue, we come together to share our knowledge and interests, and socialize with other lifelong learners.

Courses

Lifespring offers classes/courses, lectures, and events that provide 
opportunities for active adults and/or retirees to: stimulate our minds in new and creative ways; learn about topics that have been intriguing; challenge ourselves in new areas; open new vistas in learning; discover new talents, skills, and interests; and meet new people.​
