Wine, Whine and Chat

Online

Join OLLI members online for Friday afternoons with an hour of stimulating discussion and laughter. Come share your thoughts on current events—a great way to stay connected and end your week with OLLI friends. Bring your favorite beverage, kick back and enjoy the camaraderie. Rules are few: be respectful, be kind and agree to disagree with others. These make for a rich conversation. Our goal is to gather, have a lively discussion and close out the week with fellow thinkers!

Note: OLLI membership required.
