History and Legacy
The People Behind the Vision
Two Generations • One Purpose
The Center for 64+ Arts grew from the independent journeys of a father–son duo.
One was shaped through public service, governance and cultural institution building.
The other through volunteerism, education, culture, sustainability and community action.
