Deidre,
What about the local parks and recreation department? Do they have a regular program of classes - a pamphlet that is mailed (and/or online) to area residents? Does City Hall or the local library have a public display case that can be used to show the residents what your organization offers?
Or a local community college that may offer continuing education classes?
Are there regional craft/art stores that will post flyers about the activities your organization offers?
Not all seniors associate themselves with a senior center. Hope this helps.
