Sixty-Plus Adult Fellowship
Download Monthly NewsletterThe Marble Sixty-Plus Adult Fellowship is a community of active adults from all over NYC who gather weekly for social, cultural, and spiritual events. Our members are as diverse as the city we live in, and all are warmly welcomed, regardless of religious background or affiliation.
  
What We Do

Each Wednesday, from September to June, we enjoy morning offerings such as Exercise Hour, seasonal Bible Study, and Art Classes. Lunch is at noon in Marble Church's fellowship hall, followed at 1:00pm by a cultural, educational or musical program. At 2:15pm, we host the bridge club, an acting and singing troupe, and present classic movies.

To become a member of the Fellowship, please contact Liz Testa, director, or Colleen Cosgrove, coordinator. All active retired and semi-retired adults are welcome and appreciated. Regular Wednesday lunch is $7. Special events and holidays are $10 for members, $12 for non-members.

What Members Have to Say
May, Abe, Carol, Estelle and MarilynI'm a huge fan of movies. It's a kick to see someone experience one of my favorite movies for the first time. -- Marilyn

I went to my first painting class about two years ago and had no idea I would like it so much. It's never too late to learn something new. -- May

Singing is my passion and I've been a professional singer most of my life. I started the acting and singing group to encourage self-esteem in others, build confidence, and see them grow. We have a ball!
-- Estelle
