  • Greetings! PVSC is changing its fiscal year to the calendar year, so our 2022-23 membership gives you a one-time bonus of 18 months instead of 12 to enjoy all we have to offer! Thank you to all our loyal supporters! Our phone number, and mailing address are the same, but our new email address is pvscmaine@gmail.com

    If you have not yet renewed your membership, which ended on June 30, 2022, you still have time to get the benefit of additional months.
    Also, 0ur Summer Variety Extravaganza 2022 can still take registrations, and we have 8 or 9 Zoom presentations that  remain: (Aug. 2, 10, 16, 23, 25, 30, Sept. 6, 13, 20, plus our Hirundo Field Trip and Tour behind the scenes at the Collins Center for the Arts. All of these are part of the summer course, and cost the same as our regular course offerings--$30 per person. Check out all about these on the website.

    If you are a member of one of the other colleges, just email Sheila at pvscmaine@gmail.com  and let her know which college your membership is with. She will adjust the PVSC membership fee so you can register for the course online. No extra membership payments!

    Stay tuned for information about our Fall 2022 Session, which will begin the week of September 26th, PLUS an upcoming in-person event for anyone who has a current PVSC membership.
  • Welcome to the PVSC website!
    When you create an account with PVSC, you are part of a "HOUSEHOLD" which consists of 1 or 2 "MEMBERS".
    If you wish to take part in any offered classes, you must first register for a "MEMBERSHIP"  which will give you access to the Courses and One-Day Presentations.

    PVSC depends on paid Membership dues to help with our yearly planning of offerings. Dues have not increased in many years: $25 for a single membership, and $40 for two people in the same household.
    We hope you will have a long-time supporting membership with PVSC!

We are a non-profit organization of volunteers that offers a wide variety of educational opportunities to members ages 50 and older for their enrichment and enjoyment.  Don't let the word "college" scare you--there are no grades or credits, no homework, no tests, just a lot of knowledge and comaraderie to experience!

Through a yearly affordable membership fee that one-time only will be 18 months instead of 12! It will from July 1, 2022 through December 31, 2023 (and after that membership will run from January 1 through December 31 each year. With membership you may attend our free "One-Day" presentations and/or register for reasonably priced weekly 4-to-6 week two-hour courses. Depending on instructor choice and facility availability, courses may be held on  Zoom, and/or in person. Zoom technology has also provided PVSC the opportunity to link instructors and students who may live far from our geographical center in Bangor, Maine.
