Adventures in Learning

Adventures in Learning (AIL) is a lifelong learning program that's held quarterly (Winter, Spring, Summer, and Fall) and is focused on helping older adults continue to learn, discover, and grow in an atmosphere of friendship. Our sessions are led by volunteer class instructors who bring their special interests and backgrounds to enrich lives and keep minds strong and vibrant.

If you are new to the program, we warmly welcome you and appreciate your interest!

Still have questions, then call our office at (704) 365-1995.

Please note that our policy states all payments for our Adventures in Learning Program are non-refundable. In the event you are unable to attend, your payment will be considered a donation to support our ongoing initiatives.

The National Council on Aging reports that older adults who regularly engage in lifelong learning score significantly higher on assessments of physical, mental, and social well-being compared to those not engaged in continued education programs.
