Creative Aging
Workshops for Adults 55 and Better!
Whether it’s picking up a paintbrush or taking the opportunity to draw, we know that participating in the arts makes our lives healthier and richer. With this in mind, the UMFA is proud to provide free programming for adults 55 and better!
Here at the UMFA, we believe that art is for everyone and we’re excited to find new opportunities for learning, connection, and fun with older adults in our community. Please visit this page to learn more about upcoming programs, calls for participants, and celebrations of participants’ work.
