Events Committee Meeting

Spaces are limited! Get registered today for this historical excursion.

There are so many health benefits to Art to include building motor control and improving cognition and memory, just to name a few. When you couple Art with the enjoyment of the outdoors, the benefits increase exponentially. Here's an opportunity to enjoy both "Art and the Outdoors" just in time for Older Adult Month.

Here's another great activity for Seniors coming up tomorrow. Check out "Park Spark" Senior Edition sponsored by the Department of Parks and Outdoors!

Today is the beginning of Older Adults Month in Chattanooga! If you are a person 55 years of age older and residing within the City of Chattanooga, TN, you can look forward to a month of great activities and discounts being extended by local business and attractions.
