The Olympia World Affairs Council's program year runs September through April, usually on the third Thursday of the month. Speakers include professors, economists, diplomats, historians, scientists, non-profit organization leaders, business executives, and public officials.
In May we often host the OWAC Spring Reception (suspended due to Covid-19), which is centered around the presentation of the Global Connect Award.
In addition to our September-April regular schedule, we occasionally offer special programs, social gatherings with discussions of timely topics, and one-time summer programs.
