LIFE@Lynchburg
Sydnor Performance Hall, Schewel Hall 101 College St, Lynchburg, VA, United StatesCommunityThe University of Lynchburg’s LIFE@Lynchburg program offers not-for-credit learning opportunities for community members age 50 and older.

The program features weekly presentations on a variety of engaging topics, taught by current and retired faculty and staff members or area educators and presenters. Ten classes are offered each semester (fall and spring), with occasional field trips during the semesters and over the summer. LIFE@Lynchburg is for people who love learning, want to dig deeper in their areas of interest, or discover something new. Visit our curriculum page for details about the fall schedule.
