Thrive at Every Age and Life Stage
Adults & Seniors
Discover joyful experiences and lively programs for every age and stage of life at the Bender JCC. We provide adults of all ages with opportunities for personal growth and enrichment, helping you establish new routines and build meaningful connections.

Empower Your Next Chapter
Our members don’t slow down as they age—they do more than ever to help our community grow, learn, and thrive! Bender JCC members who are 50 and better prove that getting older doesn’t mean settling. Instead, they’re actively working to improve things for everyone.
Coming of Age
The Coming of Age in Maryland (CoA) program at the Bender JCC offers a vibrant mix of monthly activities, exciting excursions, and special events for active older adults. Join us for theater performances, museum visits, concert and cabaret series, and more!

Classes and Games
The Bender JCC offers a wide range of engaging activities, classes, and games for adults and seniors, designed to keep your mind sharp, spark your creativity, and help you connect with others. Whether you’re looking to learn something new, explore a hobby, or just have fun, there’s something for everyone. Play classic games like Mah Jongg, Canasta, and Bridge, unleash your creativity in painting and ceramics, or improve your Hebrew language skills.

Men’s Club
The Men’s Club is a lively group for men 60+ who want to make new friends, stay connected, and enjoy thoughtful conversations. Gather weekly to discuss current events, politics, personal matters, and more. Plus, we offer weekly and bi-weekly groups like Poker, Book Club, and Dining Out.

Selma Sweetbaum Senior Satellite Program
Join us for “Wellness Wednesdays” through the Selma Sweetbaum Senior Satellite Program lunch program! Wellness Wednesday is the perfect chance for older adults to prevent isolation, improve nutrition, and build community. Participants enjoy access to support services and enjoy chair exercises, musical performances, educational lectures, and a nutritious Kosher lunch.

Your Support Makes Us Stronger
The Bender JCC relies on the generosity of our donors and members to keep our programs and services accessible to all. Both membership dues and donor gifts support our mission and help us meet the diverse needs of our vibrant community.
