Continuing Education: Oasis & Others


I found a program for classes offered through Oasis at my local community center. They have centers in Baldwin Hills, Woodland Hills, and West Los Angeles. From Oasis' mission:

to enrich the lives of mature adults by engaging them in lifelong learning and service programs so they can learn, lead and contribute in their communities.
Our vision is to see that mature adults in communities across the country - at every level of society - have opportunities and support to pursue vibrant, healthy, productive and meaningful lives.

Other opportunities for summer classes might be found through your local high school division of continuing education, or local department of parks and recreation. Here's a link to the City of Burbank's offerings. Also check out Glendale Community College's summer schedule here.

My friend Lori has taken pottery classes this way. I've taken Italian and self defense classes, and once took a belly dancing class with my mother!


Have you pursued a new interest lately? How did you find out about it? How much did it cost? Leave me a comment with your story.
