The Sierra Renaissance Society is a group of El Dorado County senior adults who want to learn about new topics, meet new people, and have fun! Among the events are speakers and workshops.
We all participate. Members choose to study topics proposed by peers who lead the seminars. The subjects constantly evolve from the interests of the members. We are enthusiastic about Lifelong Learning—our seminars are limited only by the imagination of our members!
“I don’t believe in aging at all. Aging is a losing concept. Our group believes in learning and staying alive and active and teaching.”
Robert Heilman, professor (d. 2019), who helped found the Renaissance Society in Sacramento in 1986
Membership is open to all adults who wish to learn and help others learn. No college degree is required for membership—just the wisdom that comes with experience and the curiosity to keep learning.
