MIT: Men in Touch
For more than 30 years, MIT has been convening men of retirement age for socialization, camaraderie, and learning. The first 30 minutes of every session begins with bagels, coffee, and conversation. The remaining time is spent either with a guest speaker or with a facilitated discussion based on a particular topic.
- No need to register, show up, and introduce yourself.
- If you are not available in person, a Zoom link is available.
- $2 for bagels and coffee.
