Do you have a local RSVP (Retired and Senior Volunteer Program)  
office? All of our museum docents come from there. We also have a very  
active senior center in our community, which is where most outreach  
events like this are held.

Quoting "Dowling, Deidre" <[log in to unmask]>:

> Hi-
>
> I volunteer at a local arts center and we are interested in doing some
> outreach to area seniors and retirees.  Right now the thought is to
> offer art classes during the day time but we are unsure how to get the
> word out to this population.  Another thought is to offer special
> programs with area organizations that work with seniors.

>
>
> Has anyone had success with outreach/promotion to these groups?

>
> Suggestions can be posted to the list or emailed to me directly.
