2021 Fall OLLI Course Schedule
This fall, from September 20 through November 9, 2021, OLLI at BCC offers a variety of courses in-person, online using Zoom, and as hybrid classes offering the choice of in-person or online via Zoom. No tests, no grades, just learning for the joy of learning!
Please note that all in-person course attendees must affirm that they have been fully vaccinated when registering, and at this time must wear masks in class.
Click on the course names below for individual course descriptions. All courses are 6 sessions unless noted otherwise. Classes marked LR are limited registration and may fill up quickly.
Courses held online are recorded so if you miss one, or your schedule doesn't work for a particular course, you can request recordings and watch the class sessions on your own time.
To register for fall online classes, click here or call the OLLI office at 413.236.2190. We look forward to seeing you online! (Note: you need to be an OLLI at BCC member to register for courses. Membership information can be found here.)
