Starting on Tuesday, March 31, Bridges® will offer monthly social gatherings from 2-4 pm. Each session will feature unique programming: educational guest speakers, live musical entertainment, cognitive stimulation activities, refreshments, and more. Future programs will be held on April 28, May 26, and June 30 at the Norwalk Inn, 99 East Avenue, Norwalk.
