Welcome to Inside the Barn – a directory of Adult and Senior activities at Petersen Barn Community Center. Listed are trips, classes, presentations, meals and more that are predominantly designed for adults and seniors and cover the winter and spring months ofJanuary through April.

The start of a new year often includes making resolutions to improve or enrich our lives – be it taking steps to get into shape, trying something new, or getting back to doing what we love. Let the Barn help you achieve your New Year’s resolutions. Check out our listing of Try for Free fitness and wellness classes and give one (or two!) a try. Want something more social? We’ve got card games scheduled four days a week. If being creative is what you’re looking for, we offer numerous painting classes and dance (ballet, belly and tap). Interested in something a little less time consuming? Try a craft workshop that will have you taking home a finished craft in just two hours.

There’s a lot going on in the Barn – we hope you peruse this guide and find something to your liking.
