The La Jolla Community Center (LJCC) offers lifelong learning opportunities to La Jolla adults of all ages. This month, the newly revamped center will kick off its membership drive. For two months, every new member will receive a gift certificate for a free cooking class with the Opera Singing Chef and entrance into a drawing for a grand-prize package from Bellini Beauty Bar valued at more than $250.

The community center hopes to increase its membership by 25 percent in the next two months during the drive, and is enlisting the help of current members by offering a prize to the member who refers the highest number of new members during the drive. Annual membership is $100 for individuals and $175 per couple. Applications to become a member are available at the center, 6811 La Jolla Blvd. For more information, call Nancy Walters at (858) 459-0831.
