Deck the Halls and Celebrate the Season with Us!

The holidays have arrived at Astoria Park Senior Living in Pasadena, CA, and our halls are filled with music, laughter, and the scent of freshly baked treats. December is one of the most joyful times of the year here — a month of connection, creativity, and celebration for residents, families, and staff alike.

Holiday Happenings at Astoria Park

This December, we’re closing out the year with festive programs designed to Enrich, Engage, and Enlighten, the guiding pillars of our Empowered Living philosophy. Each week brings something new to enjoy:

  • Christmas Sing-Along & Karaoke: Beloved holiday tunes turn into full-room sing-alongs. Voices rise, smiles spread, and even the shyest singers can’t help but join in.

  • Baking Class – Holiday Treats: Residents roll, mix, and frost their way through cookie dough and classic holiday desserts. Nothing says home like the smell of cinnamon and sugar wafting from the kitchen.

  • Holiday Arts & Crafts: From hand-painted ornaments and wreaths to homemade holiday cards for our local fire station, residents craft gifts that come straight from the heart.

  • Gingerbread House Workshop: Sticky fingers and sweet laughter abound as residents build and decorate their own edible masterpieces.

  • Hot Cocoa Social & Story Hour: We gather around for storytelling, warm drinks, and shared memories of holidays past — a reminder that joy multiplies when shared.

Outings That Bring the Season to Life

Pasadena sparkles this time of year, and our residents get front-row seats to the city’s best sights and flavors. This month, we’ll be:

  • Taking a road trip to see Christmas lights across Pasadena’s most dazzling neighborhoods

  • Visiting The Cheesecake Factory at the Glendale Galleria for a festive lunch surrounded by seasonal décor

  • Enjoying a holiday shopping day at Target and Marshalls

  • Exploring the Getty Museum, where art and architecture shine brightest against winter skies

These outings help residents stay active and connected with the greater Pasadena community, a cornerstone of our approach to senior living.
