What we’re about
Madison isn't all young adults, some of us are over 50, but young at heart! If you live on or near the isthmus, are over 50, and are seeking new friendships, join us. We'll meet primarily between 10am - 5pm, with some events in early evenings. Are you retired? still working from home? caregiving for a spouse and need an outing? new to the area? looking for friends to meet up with to enjoy the farmers markets, trips to the library, music on the terrace, lectures, walks to galleries? recovering from an injury and need to get back into your groove? Join this group of locals in Madison WI. Meetings are held downtown more often, but we also plan activities on both East and West sides.
P.S. If we meet in a coffee shop or restaurant consider buying a drink or appetizer.

Architecture and Public Art Lecture - Refreshment Afterwards - Bring a Guest
Monona Terrace, John Nolen Drive, Madison, WI, USChandler Ahrens, chair of the graduate school of Architecture at the University of Washington, will talk about innovative techniques in architecture and public art. He enjoys thinking about the potential of underutilized buildings, finding inspiration in the challenges and opportunities of adaptive reuse projects. He has won awards for designs in a diverse portfolio that includes commercial creative office building renovations, galleries, retail environments, housing, academic institutions, towers and data centers. This free program is presented in partnership with American Institute of Architects Wisconsin. AIA Wisconsin is hosting Archtoberfest to celebrate all things architecture across the state during the month of October. While the talk starts at 6pm, please arrive a little early so we can get decent seating.
FREE and open to the public. Please feel free to bring a guest - spouse, partner, or friend! Afterwards, you are invited to join Cheryl and her spouse at The Post restaurant for a refreshment or drink, which is located 2 blocks away from Monona Terrace on Capitol Square. It is inside the Best Western Premiere park hotel. Cheryl would be happy to walk you back to your car or bus stop afterwards, since it will be dark.
Proceed to the information desk on LEVEL FOUR of the Monona Terrace. The coordinator at the desk will direct you to the location. (Note: the room number is not posted in the event listing links below.) Cheryl, your host, will strive to get a set of chairs where we can sit together.
