Let's Own Old

Class | Registration opens Tuesday, August 19, 2025 10:00 AM

Getting older is a part of living. We are aging every day. Some of us more gracefully than others. In her 20+ years as a generational scholar, Judith Tavano has studied generations from all angles and in a variety of settings. She has learned that though each generation is unique in its experiences, expectations, and behaviors, we all have one thing in common. We are all aging. Let’s come together and look at what’s good about aging, what’s not so good, what we can change, and what we can’t. Let’s look backward and forward and together, laugh, sigh, and keep on keeping on.

  • This program will meet in person at The New Springdale Senior Center, located at 823 E Emma Ave, Springdale, AR 72764. Please read your class reminder email for the exact room location.

Judith Tavano is a retired U of A educator who continues to train and coach emerging leaders. Judith is a charter member of OLLI, presents frequently on aging and crafts, and has volunteered on a number of committees throughout the years. Judith knits, markets collectables, and is often joined on Zoom meetings by her mini labradoodle, Stella Bella.

Judith Tavano learned to knit as a child and put it down until at age 30 she decided she wanted to knit and knit right. She took classes for two years, relearned the basics and beyond. Today, 40+ years later, Judith is seldom without a project in the making. Judith believes that knitting is a gift-to-self one stitch at a time.
