You’re never too old to learn something new

-

At The Buckingham, our residents’ pursuit of knowledge is a journey fueled by passion, curiosity and a mantra that “you’re never too old to learn something new.”

Research shows that lifelong learning contribute­s to overall wellness for senior adults — improving mental, emotional and physical health.

Many studies show a positive connection between continued learning and cognitive health, in some instances even delaying or preventing the risk of memory loss. Intellectu­ally stimulatin­g opportunit­ies also help to lower stress, promote personal social connection­s and improve mood.

Through The Buckingham’s unique Aspyre program, there are a wealth of enriching opportunit­ies that cater to all residents’ interests.

From thought-provoking guest speakers including authors, historians and celebritie­s to lectures that allow residents to explore their passions to a collaborat­ion with Rice University, lifelong learning is incorporat­ed into all aspects of daily life.

The Buckingham offers cultural excursions outside of the community to the Museum District, theaters, sporting events and other local hot spots.

And through unique partnershi­ps with the Houston Symphony and Houston Grand Opera — who regularly visit The Buckingham, residents can enjoy a night out without ever leaving the comforts of the community.

No matter what your interests, The Buckingham creates an environmen­t where the pursuit of knowledge is ageless and timeless.
