Seniors

2023 Senior Outreach Program

Since 1994, Folklore Village has been bringing concerts and interactive performances to older and disabled adults in our area through our Senior Outreach programs. All are welcome to our Senior Outreach events, from recently retired folks, to people living in care homes, to folks living at home and looking for fun and accessible activities. Folklore Village hosts senior concerts at Folklore Village and at assisted living homes, senior centers, and other partner sites in Iowa County. See the listings below for more information on what we have planned!

All Senior Outreach events are free to seniors and caregivers.


Senior Programs at Folklore Village

Free for seniors and caregivers. Hosted in Farwell Hall at Folklore Village. Space is wheelchair-accessible. Light snacks and drinks will be provided.


Senior Programs at Other Sites

Folklore Village works with local libraries, community centers, and other organizations to bring free senior concerts to locations around Southwest Wisconsin. See if we’re bringing a senior concert to a location near you!
