Western Mountains Senior College (WMSC) is a life-affirming and exciting way to continue to grow and challenge your mind and body.  As John Wooden  said, “It’s what you learn after you know it all that counts!”    

 The college offers intellectually stimulating learning opportunities, social activities and trips for adults ages 50 and over.  Also, in response to so much interest, they’ve started a new Associate Membership for persons under age 50.       

Yearly membership brings you the WMSC newsletter and monthly updates.  Many instructional groups have a minimal fee to cover learning materials. However, a scholarship program is available if your participation poses a financial hardship.  Call for details. 

The "Down Home Maine" series, open to the public, features unique, creative and adventurous people who make Maine a special place.  Light hors d'oeuvres and beverages are served.  Programs are free, but contributions are accepted to offset expenses.  Click Here to see what's coming in the near future and to view photos of past programs.
