Our Boomer Artists:

            <

Seventy eight million American Boomers are in the pipeline to retire. The first retirees turned 60 only a short time ago. Millions are following. But today’s Boomers are not like any previous generation—whether Americans or elsewhere in the world. They will never be porch sitters. They feel “young.” As a group they are healthier, more fit and fresh in their thinking—open to new ideas and ways of doing things.

 

In the words of one Boomer, who completed 30 years of special ed teaching and is a fabulous jazz singer—“We are not over the hill. We are standing on top of it, looking around for what next to do!”


They may be leaving jobs or careers they have had for years. Some are widowed or divorced. They are not retiring, i.e., pulling back from the world. Instead they are reFIRING. They are traveling inward to fan the flames of their inner brilliance—and  then bringing their passions out into the world to blaze forth with creativity, community contribution and new directions. Some are writing, singing, making art, founding new businesses or organizations, going back to school or otherwise transforming themselves.


 

Vaboomer Viosks--A Suite of Viosks will offer the best of  Boomer reFIREES’ original art, books, music, nostalgia, as well as education and support.  As you wander through this Suite of Viosks, we hope you find something to your liking. Drop into a gallery opening at The Times Two Galerie. Get a snack and browse a book at the Vaboomer Book Café and Tea Shop. Grab a flyer off the bulletin board and see what teleseminar is coming up at the Words of the Wise Ed Center this fall.  Take yourself over to Club Gig for an evening of great music.  And soon, Vaboomer Grandmas and Grandpas, you can get your hippie grandbabies some cutie pie tie-dyed onesies at Nostalgia Central.


In Vaboomer Viosks, you will meet Boomers who have their vavavaBOOM! and then some. We hope you will be inspired to reFIRE! Let us know what you are doing.
