Course Description

Instructors: Irma Starr and Abbey Drue

In our time together, through lively discussion, humor, and helpful resources, we will have the opportunity to explore the messages we have absorbed about aging. We’ll take a good, hard look at the past societal history that made these messages ones that we all accepted without question. Let’s turn these messages on their head and challenge the erroneous and damaging belief of a culture that does not expect much from us once we are aging, other than predictable decline and medical needs! Instead, through thoughtful class sessions together, let’s discover who we each are as an aging adult, and take the opportunity to identify what parts of our style of living no longer fit the person each of us is now. It’s the proven fact that we never stop reinventing ourselves as we age- it doesn’t end when we become older!! It’s never too late to experience ourselves in new ways. Yes- buy green bananas! Indeed, there is time enough! Max 15 Students
