Ladies High Tea

Located in the IL Bistro, this monthly social event features a delectable spread of tea blends, refreshments, and of course, juicy conversation. Did you know? Legend has it that afternoon tea was started in the mid1800s by the Duchess of Bedford, who, in the afternoons, found herself with a "sinking feeling." This was likely fatigue from hunger during the long wait between meals. She decided to invite friends over for assorted snacks and tea, which was a very fashionable drink at the time. The idea of an afternoon tea gathering spread across high society and remains a favorite pastime to this day!

GENT’S LUNCH

An affinity group meeting each month, located on site and throughout the Naples area, enjoying lunch, libations, and discussing active living in the 21st century.

OPEN MIC POETRY & STORYTELLING

Led by resident poet, Jackie, and facilitated by Life Enrichment Director, Bri any. Residents are encouraged to write their own poetry or story about a theme decided upon by the group the month prior. Participants are also welcome to simply recite a poem or story of their choice wri en by other authors. We’ve had topics ranging from first cars to desserts, so anything’s game!
