Our Social Scene program provides a menu of activities that encourage seniors to socialize and remain active. We\u2019re bringing live jazz to the centers, exercise programs by trained instructors, manicures by stylists, paint and sip parties, and many other activities. For centers looking to bring these activities to their seniors, we have an Activities Menu, which allows centers to choose multiple activities for the month, or they can schedule a series of events for up to 12 months.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Wayne E. Jordan, Director of New York for Seniors<\/strong> stated, \u201cbesides the obvious benefits of having exciting activities inside of centers throughout New Yok City, we also promote the events on the NewYorkforSeniors.com events calendar, and in the New York for Seniors print magazine.\u00a0 Hyper-focused promotion is essenital when it comes to reaching seniors. Our events calendar is shared and read by thousands of seniors and caregivers every month, and the magazine is distributed at senior centers, hospitals, senior-focused events, elected officials offices and community centers.\u00a0 This initiative is two-fold; providing exciting activities for seniors and increasing senior center membership through our marketing efforts. \u00a0Seniors need to stay active, and this initiative was created with that sole purpose in mind.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>JIG Media has additional expansion plans in the works. They encourage seniors, caregivers and center directors to make sure they pick up the New York for Seniors magazine, visit the NewYorkforSeniors.com website and definitely attend the New York for Seniors Health &amp; Wellness Resource events.<\/p>\n<p>If your center is looking to schedule \u2018Social Scene\u2019 activities <strong>Call (877) 255-7017 or email Wayne Jordan at <a href=\"mailto:wayne@jig.media\">wayne@jig.media<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>The program is set to kickoff at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eventbrite.com\/e\/new-york-for-seniors-health-wellness-resource-fair-harlem-edition-tickets-55460080594\">New York for Seniors Health &amp; Wellness Fair<\/a>, May 9, 2019 , in Harlem, in partnership with the <a href=\"http:\/\/chscc.org\/\">Central Harlem Senior Citizens Centers<\/a>.
