Spring 2026 OLLI Digital Catalog – under construction 

OSHER CRAFT CIRCLE (X211)

X – Extracurricular

This course is open to OLLI students who enjoy each other’s company as they work on their handicraft. This is not an instructional course, but a venue for creative handiworkers to share what they do best while sitting with genial folks. If you knit or crochet and are looking for a project, we can find you one that helps a good cause! Join the group as your schedule allows.

This offering meets for a total of 11 session(s).
