    Join us at The Thread for a vibrant celebration of global traditions and active aging at the “Joy to the World Active Aging Expo”! This festive event showcases Christmas around the World, including Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, and the heritage of the Catawba Indian Nation. Immerse yourself in a multicultural holiday celebration where you can dive into active learning demonstrations ranging from watercolor painting and line dancing to fitness and mindfulness sessions.

    Each vendor will transport you across the globe through the sights, sounds, smells, and tastes of their unique cultures, creating a truly sensory experience. Embrace the spirit of the season and discover new traditions!

    We are committed to inclusion and accessibility for all attendees. Enjoy the convenience of QR codes with audio descriptions at each demonstration, assistance from a sign language interpreter, and a designated quiet zone for sensory comfort. Special gathering spots for those with mobility impairments ensure that everyone can join in the fun. Additionally, a caregiver corner will provide valuable resources and opportunities for connection.

    Embrace active aging and learn something new at the Joy to the World Active Aging Expo! Don’t miss this unique opportunity to celebrate diversity and activity at the heart of the holiday season.
