Mt. Airy Learning Tree

MALT was founded in 1980 and celebrates the diversity of Northwest Philadelphia, bringing together neighbors to share a wide variety of ideas, information, and skills in informal learning environments. Courses that encourage exchange among people of different ages; reflect the backgrounds, experiences, and talents of our community, and that focus on issues of concern to the community are of particular interest. MALT now offers 200+ courses three times a year, in the fall, winter and spring. Topics range literally from A (Art) to Z (Zumba). Our classrooms are in local churches, schools, businesses, and homes or outdoors in the Wissahickon and at local points of interest. Course ideas are limited only by our collective imagination. Our teachers are want to share their passions and talents with other adults, and they believe in building community.
