The event will be conducted from 10 to 11:30 a.m. Friday, Feb. 15, at the college, which is located at 112 College Drive in Wells.
Adults, ages 50 and up, are invited to the free event to learn about Senior College courses and lectures being held this spring. Classes begin in mid-March and meet weekly or bi-weekly, running from four to eight weeks into late May.
