Seniors
Seniors are welcome to attend any number of events happening each month at your favorite community library, like Chair Yoga at Knight Memorial Library or the Abuelitas Club at Washington Park Library. You will also find staff reaching out to seniors in the larger community—facilitating arts programs at senior centers, facilitating book clubs at assisted living facilities, and delivering books to affordable housing communities.
