City of Asheville Government Community News: Celebrated every year in September, National Senior Center Month 

spotlights how vital these centers are to the health and well-being of communities like Asheville. Senior centers provide support and encouragement to older adults and offer a place for community members in the prime of life to discover unique interests, talents, and aspirations. This year’s theme is Powering Connections, encouraging older adults to discover a broad spectrum of new friendships with neighbors of all ages, health and wellness opportunities, creativity, and excitement.
