Sessions cover diverse topics such as bird watching, local history (Sikh Temple, Haggin Museum tours), arts (watercolor, Bob Hope Theatre tour), local culture (Filipino-American Martial Arts), agriculture, and local products (wine & cheese tasting, wine & olive oil tasting, garden cooking).OLLI at Pacific is a non-profit education program specifically designed for people ages 50+, though open to all adult learners. Dedicated to providing intellectually stimulating non-credit classes, interest groups, local and international trips, and special events, OLLI has served thousands of mature learners for nearly 20 years.
