Our Young@Arts program aims to return older adults to the arts of Wester New York or introduce them for the first time. For the past two years, we've scheduled monthly trips to some of the most outstanding arts and cultural institutions to engage and immerse folks through socialization.
ALL ABOARD THE POLAR EXPRESS!
