Empowered Minds

Encouraging Lifelong Learning

Empowered Minds offers in-depth weekly in-person and virtual classes. Class length is typically 1.5 - 2 hours in length with occasional series sessions. Classes are currently offered at LCL's Downtown Newark and Johnstown (Mary E. Babcock) locations. 

Learning should be an ongoing endeavor in each of our lives, as we seek out new personal adventures and tap into our creativity. Licking County Library's goal for this learning program is to embark on an enriching journey with those of retirement age. Empowered Minds is supported by a sustaining gift from Robert Trimble Jr. and in part by the Licking County Senior Levy. Donations are accepted to support this program. Please visit our donations page for details on how to give a gift.
