Why Lighting Up Lives Day Matters
Music for Seniors’ programming is designed to engage, entertain, and educate older adults, promoting health and well-being, reducing isolation and feelings of loneliness, strengthening a sense of belonging in the communities where they live, and enriching the lives of all participants.
This year we will deliver 1,700+ shared live music programs in partnership with more than 130 local Musician Partners, together lighting up the lives of 50,000+ older adults across Middle and East Tennessee.
