ILR promotes learning and curiosity in retirement
The Institute for Learning in Retirement, called the ILR, is a group of active seniors who are committed to life-long learning. Membership is open to all who are retirement age without regard to race, religion, gender, color, or national origin. Based at the Virginia Beach campus of Tidewater Community College, we enjoy intellectually stimulating lectures, discussion groups, social events, and trips. While the pandemic alters our meeting together on campus, we continuedto enjoy intellectual experiences with classes delivered via Zoom. So do not wait for Covid to disappear in order to meet our community of learners. For a yearly membership fee you will receive a quarterly schedule of our programs and events. Classes, trips, discussion groups, and socials require registration and payment. Read more to see if joining ILR might enrich your retirement life as well.

It's time for our visual artists and hobbyists to share their work with members and the public. The plan is to celebrate our senior artists with a fall show in the Joint Use Library on the TCC campus. We had expected to use this location when the pandemic cancelled public access. Now we are back on their calendar! At this time, we need to know who would like to join the exhibit. You'd have a few months to actually finish or frame your work. So, if you dabble with paints, carve, weave, knit, or somehow capture your vision of the world through art, we are eager to see your work. Your perspective expands ours, so please step forward! If interested, contact the office and Fran Scott will be in touch with details. Classes return to Pungo Building auditoriumWe have returned to the Pungo Building auditorium to enjoy visiting friends, hearing our speakers in person, and using its improved technology. Activities such as the Siteseers and probably the book group will be held there as well. You will enter the parking area by Michael La Bouve Drive. Walk past the Lynnhaven Building E toward the Pungo Building F located behind it. Security protocols of TCC asked us to use the main entrance to the Pungo Building. The red arrows on the photographs below indicate the path. We are asked to walk around the left side of the building and enter through the door facing the center of campus. Inside you just need to turn right and you'll see the familiar entrance to the Pungo Auditorium. Check the map to see the general area . Campus Map
