Events!

The Events! program fulfills one of the Center’s guiding values: “Recognizing the significant health benefits of remaining active and avoiding social isolation.” What better way to put this value into action than by getting together? There’s a lot to do in RVA: museums, restaurants, wineries, plays, exhibits, historical sites, breweries, music, sporting events, and more. Plus, the Center also shows movies in their multi-purpose room for FREE.

Events are for members and volunteers – bring a guest! Membership is only $25. You can become a member here. Enter your email here to get announcements about coming events. And if you enjoy planning events, join our Events! committee. Contact the office at 804-355-7282 or tscor@tscor.org.

Lincoln is a 2012 American biographical historical drama film directed and produced by Steven Spielberg, starring Daniel Day-Lewis as United States President Abraham Lincoln. The film features Sally Field, David Strathairn, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, James Spader, Hal Holbrook, and Tommy Lee Jones in supporting roles. Its screenplay by Tony Kushner was loosely based on Doris Kearns Goodwin’s 2005 biography Team of Rivals: The Political Genius of Abraham Lincoln and covers the final four months of Lincoln’s life. The film focuses on President Lincoln’s efforts in January 1865 to abolish slavery and involuntary servitude by having the Thirteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution passed by the United States House of Representatives.
