description
Encore Creativity for Older Adults’ guiding mission is to create meaningful arts experiences supporting lifelong learning, wellness, and fun for all older adults. We envision a world where all older adults have a place in the arts.
Encore is the nation’s largest choral arts organization for adults 55 and over. With over 40 ensembles (and growing!) nationwide, and over 1500 singers ages 55 to 99, Encore is a leading organization in the field of creative aging. Encore’s programs include traditional choral music performances, Encore ROCKS groups singing rock ‘n’ roll hits from the 50s and beyond, therapeutic Arts for Life programs for individuals with early- to mid-stage cognitive change and their care partners, and online Encore University classes to supplement our singers’ musical journeys.
