Discover OLLI at Texas Tech Highland Lakes

We were excited to have Penne Richards (Director of the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at Texas Tech University), Sarah Ramos (OLLI Coordinator), and local leadership volunteer Linda Baker in the KBEY studio to talk about OLLI at TTU Highland Lakes.

Specifically for adults aged 50 and “better,” OLLI offers short-term, non-credit courses right here in Marble Falls. There are no tests, no grades, and no papers—just pure enjoyment, lively discussions, and the opportunity to make new friends who share your curiosity.

The Osher Lifelong Learning Institute offers:

• Diverse Course Lineup: Everything from Texas history and environmental science to photography, art, literature, cooking, and local field trips.
• Affordable Membership: Annual Hill Country OLLI membership is just $30, giving you priority registration and discounted course pricing.
• Bonus Access: As a member, you can attend in-person classes at the Highland Lakes campus (806 Steve Hawkins Pkwy, Marble Falls) as well as virtual classes hosted across all Texas Tech OLLI campuses!
