Community Programs

Come and enjoy the University of Richmond International Film Series. These films are free and open to the public and are shown in the original language with English subtitles.

Osher Lifelong Learning Institute members will not want to miss the exciting Jepson Forum offerings. Tickets are free and may be reserved three weeks before the event by calling (804) 289-8980.  To be added to the mailing list, call (804) 287-6627 or e-mail jepson@richmond.edu. Forum evenings often include a book signing.  The university bookstore staffs a book sale table in the lobby before and after the lecture.

Osher members can visit three University of Richmond Museums: The Joel and Lila Harnett Museum of Art, The Joel and Lila Harnett Print Study Center, and The Lora Robins Gallery of Design from Nature.  Exhibitions and collections highlight artwork, cultural history, and natural history spanning the globe and the centuries.  Admission as well as engaging programs such as lectures, gallery talks, and workshops is free and open to the public.  For more information call (804) 289-8276.

At the Bonner Center for Civic Engagement, Osher members may join undergraduate students, faculty, staff, and community members to address civic and social issues through action, reflection, and research.  The center sponsors free weekly brown bag lunch discussions.

The Women Involved in Living and Learning (WILL) and the Women, Gender and Sexuality Studies (WGSS) programs invite Osher members to their annual speaker series about women, gender and diversity. The events will be posted on the WILL Web site, or you can call (804) 289-8578.  All programs are free of charge.
