“Our members embody learning throughout a lifetime. Whether they’re picking up a new hobby or exploring a favorite subject, you can see how it brings energy, connection and joy. Lifelong learning really is a key part of staying active, curious and engaged at any age,” said Heidi Leiterman, UW-Green Bay program specialist with the Lifelong Learning Institute.

Two introductory events are scheduled for those interested in membership:
