What happens when generations come together to share their creativity? Join the Age Strong Commission's Creative Aging program and the Office of Youth Engagement and Advancement (OYEA) for a special edition of Open Circuit at The Substation!

This intergenerational open mic brings older adults and young people together to share their talents, exchange ideas, and inspire one another. With a live band, spontaneous performances, collaborative art-making, and plenty of opportunities to connect, the evening will be shaped by the people in the room. Come ready to perform, create, connect, or simply enjoy the unexpected!
