Alexandria, VA – On November 15, Senior Services of Alexandria’s Senior Living in Alexandria promises to be a fun one! With our beautiful fall weather, it is a great time to venture out and discover our unique city filled with history, programs, and learning opportunities for older adults!

The morning’s session includes speakers from the Office of Historic Alexandria talking about the city’s historic properties open to visit, events and programs taking place on our city’s history, and fun facts you may not have heard before. Volunteer opportunities are available for older adults, and one might be just the right fit for you.

Historic Alexandria’s Oral History Center currently features interviews with local Alexandrians. It explains how they are telling the story of Alexandria through local residents. Participants can talk about sharing their history and connection to our city.
