Art and culture for seniors

Avatar: Official proposal Official proposal

What problem would you like to solve?

There is a lack of art and culture exposure for seniors due to how expensive everything is.

Why is it important to solve? Why is it relevant for the community?

It helps the community to afford to be able to leave their homes and participate and learn. As for the future it allows us seniors to be able to travel and go as a group in safety and enjoy the arts. We need more integration and social outings as elders.

What idea do you have to address the problem?

We need more funding for senior programs that help us go to broadway shows or see exhibits and participate in arts and culture programs and projects in the community.

Who would that help?

The seniors

What neighborhood would benefit from your idea?

Manhattan.
