Omnilore's  FORUM
(3-per-Year Speaker Luncheon)

Upcoming Forum | Future Forum Schedule  


MaryJosephRetreatCenterThe Forum is an Omnilore special event held three times a year.  (Three-times-per-year is new in 2024. It was previously four-times-per-year, but changed to align with Omnilore's trimesters.)

In the past year, our Forum has been held at various Palos Verdes venues, including at the Mary & Joseph Retreat (where we were on Oct. 31), the Original Red Onion, and Los Verdes golf course.  

Past Forums have featured college professors, scientists, researchers, business leaders, newspaper editors, famous local artists — including some Omnilore members.

Each Forum provides an opportunity for members to gather in a social setting to enjoy a special luncheon followed by a stimulating lecture presentation.  Forums give members and their guests an opportunity to meet and socialize outside the regular classroom sessions.

Photograph Country ClubThe third Forum of the year (end-October) is actually our general membership's Founder Burt Cutler Memorial Forum and Annual Meeting.  At this meeting, in addition to a wonderful lunch and a stimulating speaker, we also elect our officers for the coming year.

Omnilore Forums are open to non-members.  Attending is one way to become more acquainted with our organization and members.
