Welcome to the SPARK (Senior Peers Actively Renewing
Knowledge) Website!
The SPARK Philosophy
SPARK’s philosophy is to provide, at
modest cost, learning and fun social experiences for participants. There
are no prerequisites, tests or grades for classes. Instructors are members
or volunteers who have a strong interest in a particular topic.
SPARK is an Elderhostel Lifelong
Learning Institute (LLI) and a member of the Elderhostel Institute Network
(EIN.)
SPARK partners
with the University of Missouri-Kansas City (UMKC.) This allows SPARK to
have an LLI in a collegiate environment
supported by the intellectual and cultural resources of
the university.
The SPARK
office is open Monday, Wednesday and Thursday from 9:00 A.M. to 3:00 P.M.
