BSM feb 2026 cover

From this issue:

Hello Boston! 

Welcome to the February issue of Boston Seniority Magazine. 2026 is officially underway, and the cover of this month’s issue captures the highlight of my year so far: Spending time with so many of you at the flower-arranging workshop we hosted at Union Church in the South End a few weeks ago! 

Inside this issue, you’ll find information on more upcoming opportunities to stay active, informed, and engaged this month.

For some fresh air, check out one of the free winter fitness classes hosted by our Parks Department, or head to one of the four monthly Memory Cafes we’re hosting across our neighborhoods. When it’s too cold to venture outside, check out the Boston Public Library’s Black History Month reading list, or read some of our neighbors’ reflections on what Lunar New Year means to them.

This month, Age Strong is also hosting various neighborhood 
Cost-Savings Clinics: in-person meetings with Age Strong advocates who can help you figure out what health, home, and tax benefits you may be eligible for. To schedule an appointment, call 617-635-4366.

And, if you’ve enjoyed this magazine or benefited from Age Strong’s programming, we hope you’ll consider becoming an Age Strong Volunteer. You can earn reimbursements, set your own hours, and make a difference in the lives of your friends and neighbors. Check out page 12 for details.

Looking forward to seeing you in the community,

Mayor Michelle Wu
