Start of the semester at the Offenbach Adult Education Center: vhs as a place of the future - shaping tomorrow together

20.01.2026 – Education and community are inextricably linked - an idea that the adult education centers in Germany have placed at the heart of their 2026 annual motto "Zukunftsort vhs - Gemeinsam das Morgen gestalten".

The vhs Offenbach also shows that it is not only a place of learning, but also an important meeting place for dialog, exchange and the strengthening of cohesion. Diversity is a strength - and encounters and education are key to promoting this strength. The vhs offers spaces to bring together people from different backgrounds, perspectives and walks of life. But we also live in a time in which democratic values and social cohesion are increasingly being called into question. The vhs creates meeting and exchange spaces for the wider society, where people can meet, learn from each other and work towards a better future.

The new semester at vhs Offenbach begins on February 2, 2026. So it's time to take a look at the magazine or the website www.vhs-offenbach.de and be inspired by the wide range of courses and events on offer in the areas of health, languages, culture & creativity, work & multimedia, society & life.

In addition to sports, language and art courses, the vhs also offers courses for children and many lectures on the topic of artificial intelligence. A special highlight are the interdisciplinary educational vacations, which combine foreign language training with theory and practice for stress management. Italian and Spanish are on the curriculum in the mornings and yoga and qigong in the afternoons. A successful combination that makes it worth thinking about educational vacations again.

The vhs Offenbach can also be visited online before the first course. The virtual tour allows interested parties to explore the various course rooms, function rooms and advisory services as well as the entire building from the comfort of their own home. The innovatively designed, interactive tour can be found at www.vhs-offenbach.de.

The vhs program booklets are already available throughout the city. All current course offers can be found at any time at www.vhs-offenbach.de. Bookings can be made online, by telephone on 069 8065-3141 or by e-mail vhsoffenbachde.
