Forming new friendships can be difficult as we
get older. The JCC’s Adult Social Programs allow
adults of all ages to come together and explore
Milwaukee, discover community, and make new
friends. Whether you’re a first-time parent looking
to build your village or a semi-retired adult seeking new hobbies, our Adult Social Programs offer
a wide range of fun and engaging activities to help
you find community in your next stage of life.
