Special Events
Nashville Public Library
We will have two special presentations. One will be in the Civil Rights Room where the materials exhibited capture the drama of a time when thousands of African-American citizens in Nashville sparked a nonviolent challenge to racial segregation in the city and across the South. We will also have a special presentation in the Votes for Women room that was created to mark the 100th anniversary of the ratification of the 19th Amendment to The Constitution.
Connect
Join a Shared Interest Group
Our Shared Interest Groups offer a smaller, more hands-on experience than traditional OLLI courses. They are an opportunity for OLLI members to meet outside the classroom with those who share a common interest.
Current Shared Interest Groups
The Osher classes are a highlight of my week! Coming together with this diverse and wonderful group of people is a true joy.
