A Guided Exploration provides an opportunity for a group of members to meet with an expert who serves as a guide in exploring a subject and/or activity. Such an event is facilitated by an OLLI member taking responsibility for the event. The guide may or may not be an OLLI member. The aim is for the group to learn from a presentation or demonstration, followed by ample time to discuss the topic, practice a skill, construct a product, and/or have an experiential adventure (such as an activity in the natural world).
Upcoming Guided Explorations are listed below. Please note, you must be a current OLLI at SOU member to attend our Guided Explorations events. If you are not yet a member, choose here to join now.
