The creativity and talent of members of the Lifelong Learning Institute of Virginia Tech (LLI) are on display at a new art show.

More than 90 paintings and drawings make up the exhibit, "Still Learning, Still Creating." The pieces were created by 30 LLI members who participated in classes led by volunteer instructors Jesi Pace-Berkely and Lois Stephens.

The exhibit can be viewed through Aug. 7 at the Y Community Art Gallery, YMCA at Virginia Tech, 1000 N Main St in Blacksburg.

LLI is a program of Continuing and Professional Education and draws on the region’s vast academic and community resources to create enriching programming for curious adults age 50 and older.
