JOIN US AT THE SENIOR CENTER THIS SUMMER

June in Arizona is a reminder of how quickly the summer heat arrives. Before long, outdoor walks, morning errands, and casual time spent in the neighborhood give way to the practical realities of desert living. For older adults especially, the shift indoors can be abrupt, and with it can come a quieter, more isolated routine.

Staying active and connected during the summer months takes a little more intention, but it matters just as much as it does any other time of year. Aster invites you to make our Senior Centers your home base this summer. As the temperatures climb, the Centers remain a cool, welcoming space where the day still has shape and company is never far away.

A hot lunch is served every afternoon, and the schedule around it is full: exercise and dance classes, art, live music, movies, education programs, and Bingo. There is always something on, and no particular reason is needed to show up.

The Café at each Center offers a relaxed place to sit with a snack and good conversation. Some days that is enough. Whether you come for a class, stay for lunch, or simply want somewhere comfortable to spend part of the afternoon, you are welcome.

For older adults managing fixed incomes, health needs, or the general complexity of aging, summer is also a practical moment to make sure you have what you need. Aster's Outreach Specialists are trained professionals who can help you access food assistance, utility support, Medicare benefits, Medicaid, and more, at no cost and in confidence.

Aster is here to help you move through summer well. To explore all of our programs and services, visit our Services for You page or call 480-964-9014. Our Senior Centers are located at Mesa Downtown and Red Mountain, and we look forward to seeing you.
