Senior Engagement

Welcome to our Senior Programming webpage!

Temple Israel and the St. Louis Jewish community are proud to offer seniors many opportunities to enjoy fun adventures around the area, thought-provoking learning opportunities, special guest speakers, dining around town, Jewish experiences, and so much more! Whether you're looking for events and programs geared toward your interests, or just want to enjoy friends and community, we've got something for you!

Types of events include outings where we'll take a bus to a delicious lunch venue and see exciting St. Louis sites, hands-on opportunities such as craft making, and lunch with musical entertainment or special presenters such as authors, comedians, and magicians.

We're here to help.
Have questions, need a complimentary cab service, or prefer to RSVP over the phone? Reach out to Rachel Leonard at rleonard@ti-stl.org or 314-432-8050.
