Workshops

Get involved

411 Seniors offers an array of programs, services, events, trips, and workshops year-round for free or at a low cost. Beyond our current Information and Referral program and Drop-In Hour services, additional in-person programs take place at our centre.

See information about our programming, fees and our monthly program calendar below.

Current Programming

Check out our programming in 411’s events calendar below by clicking on the different program and workshop titles. The calendar provides information on upcoming 411 workshops and events as well as wider community events. We add programming for the upcoming month a few days prior to the 1st of the month each month. We look forward to seeing you at the centre!

Program Fees

Due to the cost associated with facility and administration expenses, on January 1st, 2024, we started charging fees for our programs.

Program classes with an instructor: $2 per class if you purchase a seasonal program card at the centre (April, May, June 2024)

Drop-in per class: $3

Any program that does not require an instructor is free: Birthday celebrations, book club, canasta, mahjong, cards & games, sewing & knitting, drop-in coffee at the centre on Tuesdays and at Kingsgate mall on Thursdays.

How to sign up for programs

To sign up for 411 Seniors Centre programs, visit our centre at 3502 Fraser Street in Vancouver or contact us at 604-684-8171.

We expect everyone to be a member to participate. Fees are paid to 411, not the instructor. You must register and pay for the class. If you are on a waiting list, you do not have to pay until you join the class. Program fees/cards cannot transfer to other classes. Refunds are granted when there are circumstances beyond your control (weather, severe sickness).

Lunches @ 411
We also serve lunch on Wednesdays and Fridays for a small fee.

MELT (Meet,Eat,Learn, and Teach)@ 411
The program is designed to offer seniors food skills, subsidized meals and opportunities to socialize and meet new friends.
