Arizona Senior Academy | The Smart Way to (un)Retire

Lively Arts

From chamber music to boogie woogie, our weekly concert series is guaranteed to satisfy just about every musical taste.

Situated at the foot of the Rincon Mountains, the Arizona Senior Academy (ASA) was established to insure that active engagemeent with civic life, intellectual stimulation and cultural enrichment continue thoughout our (un-)retirement.

Lifelong Learning

Many of Arizona’s finest minds help ASA members keep abreast of local, state, national and international events. Our twice-weekly lectures bring cutting-edge issues and leading-edge research right to our door.

Public Service

Just as important as what we take from our events and activities is what we give back. ASA members contribute across Tucson at dozens of places in dozens of ways, aided by the networks that we and our members create.

Going Places

The Academy’s commitment to lifelong learning includes field trips to places as varied as the U.S.-Mexican border and Biosphere 2.
