Over the past few years, the UC San Diego Department of Music, with support from the Gluck Foundation, has hosted concerts at various senior centers and community organizations, such as Los Años Dorados. These events are designed to allow older adults to enjoy music, companionship, and new sounds. Graduate students from different disciplines have been able to perform and share their music with these audiences.
Los Años Dorados is a vibrant community of primarily older women who cherish the opportunity to connect. They share delightful meals, craft beautiful knitted garments—many of which have been showcased in exhibitions—and engage in heartfelt discussions about their families and life experiences. This project aims to gather their poignant stories of migration and life in San Diego and San Ysidro while highlighting Mary Rodriguez's remarkable efforts to nurture and strengthen this invaluable community.
