“All are welcome to attend the in-person classes,” stated PEIR Chairman Murray Shapiro.
“If you’re a retiree or are semi-retired and you are seeking intellectual stimulation, cultural enrichment, and personal growth, PEIR is the program for you. At PEIR, you’ll find a diverse mix of vibrant and intelligent participants who view retirement as a time for interests they couldn’t explore while working or raising families. PEIR members are friendly, welcoming, and open to new experiences,” added Shapiro.
