Welcome to Hamilton Third Age Learning
Hamilton Third Age Learning is a nonprofit organization founded in 2012 with a mission to offer affordable learning opportunities geared to adults 50+ in Hamilton, Ontario and surrounding communities.
Our goal is to inspire and inform you with lectures and other presentations led by university professors and experts in their fields on the topic of “Understanding the 21st Century”.
In support of life-long learning, join us for stimulating opportunities to learn, question and share knowledge on a wide variety of topics in a friendly, social environment.
2022 Fall Series Announcement
Welcome/Welcome back
We are excited to welcome subscribers to the RBG IN PERSON for the 2022 fall series. It will be great to be able to see you all again and have a chance to socialize. You let us know in the recent survey how important that was to you and we listened. We also learned there are a number of subscribers who remain reluctant to venture out due to COVID; therefore, we will provide recorded versions of the lectures for post-lecture password protected access to accommodate all subscribers.
Attendees are encouraged to exercise their own comfort level for wearing health masks in the auditorium. Please feel free to bring your own water bottle as beverages will not be provided. RBG does have a coffee vending machine should you wish to use it.
If Public Health rules change regarding large community gatherings we will change the format to Zoom webinars and will inform all subscribers of the change in a timely manner.
