Studies from leading health research sources consistently show that staying mentally curious, socially engaged, and emotionally invested in life is linked to a stronger sense of purpose as we age. We believe that curiosity is the secret to aging backwards.
Staying Curious isn’t just a personality trait … it’s a pathway to good health!
Our mission started when a group of seniors in Central MA realized that most of the programming for seniors is either about diet, medicine or exercise. Diverse senior-focused programming is severely limited.
Despite representing nearly 20% of the U.S. population (and growing rapidly as Baby Boomers age), seniors are largely under-served in original, inspiring, locally relevant programming.
