Lifelong learning
through courses,
events and more

At U3A you can share your passions and interests with others in a friendly, supportive and social environment. No prior qualifications are needed. U3A Canberra offers a wide variety of classes and activities, held in venues throughout Canberra and also online. We welcome anyone 50+, whether still working or retired.

We offer a wide range of courses from the arts to the environment; from ideologies to technologies; from current affairs to reminiscing over the sounds of dead rockers. Some run all year while many run for shorter periods.

In a typical week you could attend a lecture, discuss a book or current affairs, learn to play an instrument or join a choir, improve your computer skills, critique a film, or work on drawing your first masterpiece. Want physical activity? Then come to Tai Chi classes, learn country dancing or join a walk.

Unable to attend in person? Take advantage of our online courses and participate from home.
We also have an agreement with the University of Canberra that allows U3A members to attend classes fee-free.
And if none of our courses inspire you, then we can help you to run a course yourself!
