The Village Connections Series is sponsored by Clifford Swan.
Pasadena Village, a nonprofit that supports aging-in-place older adults, invites you to Village Connections on Thursday at 2 pm at the Washington Park Community Center. Socialize over complimentary coffee and tea from 2-2:30 and stay for an engaging presentation or discussion topic led and moderated by fellow adults 50+. Free
For those that appreciate the spoken word, or poetry in general, we offer an opportunity to gather and engage with poems. We will read poems aloud; famous, infamous or original. We will share our thoughts. We might learn something new or remember something old. Bring poems you would like to share.
