The Academy of Lifelong Learning (ALL) will observe its 25th anniversary at the ALL Winter Celebration on Friday, Jan. 26, from 11 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. in the Trutter Center. Guests may attend the free event, which includes lunch, entertainment and cruise-themed activities. Register by calling 217-786-2477 by Tuesday, Jan. 23.

ALL offers educational adventures to individuals 50 and older. Currently ALL has more than 400 members and is accepting new ones. Classes and activities are planned and presented by members who enjoy meeting interesting friends, sharing ideas, exploring topics of interest, learning from one another and having fun.

ALL was formed in 1992 under the sponsorship of LLCC. The following year, ALL was chartered as part of the national Elderhostel (now Road Scholar) Institute Network. It was the first such organization chartered in the state of Illinois for seniors who would determine for themselves what they wanted to learn. The continuity of ALL over 25 years is a testament to that early recognition of the power of continued pursuit of knowledge by adults as they age.
