Great Age Movement

05/26/2026

Houston is redefining what it means to age with confidence, style, movement and community at the incredible Great Age on the Green Senior Music Fest hosted by Great Age Movement and Discovery Green- welcoming more than 2,000 attendees for an unforgettable day. ✨

Following the Houston Chronicle’s feature, “A Houston nonprofit wants to rebrand aging. Their Guild Shop fashion show put seniors on the runway,” the momentum came alive at Discovery Green with a first-of-its-kind celebration of active aging.

Guests experienced inspiring wellness talks, dance and fitness classes, live music, lawn games, the Houston Rockets’ Space City Seniors, and the highly anticipated Guild Shop Fashion Show…all proving that vitality, purpose and style truly have no age limit.

Special guests included Kate Linder of The Young and the Restless, Joanne King Joanne King Herring, Beth Muecke, Dr. Terri Alani and many other inspiring Houstonians who helped change the conversation around aging.

Houston isn’t just aging, it’s aging boldly.
