We are so lucky to be seniors in 2017. We are healthier than previous generations, and there are systems set up so we can be active until late in our lives. But we also live in a more complex universe, and it is very challenging to keep up to date. It is imperative to be well informed on a variety of topics and so important to keep learning about our world. This is where New Adventures in Learning comes in. The classes at New Adventures, an adult learning program, provide a wealth of information in many life experiences.

This is a list of some of the life experiences seniors need to be well informed about and one of the many classes that are offered at New Adventures in Learning to help keep up with this learning.
