For over thirty years, the Wabash Area Lifetime Learning Association has offered lifelong learning and social opportunities.

You are invited to join this vibrant community of adults who enjoy lifelong learning in a casual, friendly atmosphere. Whether you want to learn something new, explore a different hobby, or just connect to other adults who share common interests, WALLA has something for you. There are forty classes to choose from in our upcoming fall session.

Become part of a dynamic community where curiosity thrives, connections flourish, and learning never gets old.

Online registration for fall courses begins August 20. The four-week class session begins October 5. For more information, visit www.wallaonline.org, or email us at office@wallaonline.org.

Some evenings are made to be remembered—Blooms, Bubbly, & Brushstrokes is one of them.

Join us at the Haan Museum of Indiana Art for a guided evening that blends art, inspiration, & a very good time. Glass of bubbly in hand, you’ll begin with a private tour of our celebrated sculpture garden—letting the shapes, colors, & spirit of the works spark your creative eye. Back in the studio, bubbly & bites keep the energy flowing as you design & arrange your own small floral bouquet, drawing on everything the garden stirred in you.

Then comes the canvas. With step-by-step guidance from our instructor, you’ll paint the flowers you’ve just arranged—no experience required, no pressure, just the pure joy of making something beautiful. You’ll leave with a painting to hang, a bouquet to take home, & an evening you won’t forget.
