Mill City Commons (MCC) is a membership organization for adults 55+, most but not all of whom live in the Central Riverfront District of Minneapolis. Our mission is to build community through a stimulating array of programs and activities that connect us to each other and help us to maintain vibrant lives as we age. Learn more about what we do.

Friendships, social connections, and mental stimulation are vital components of healthy aging. The neighbors and friends to be found through MCC provide enriching companionship, support, and encouragement to stay active. These connections, combined with the programs, events, and activities that MCC offers to members, comprise a platform for living engaged, dynamic lives no matter our age.

MCC’s robust calendar of programs, events, activities, and outings coupled with connection to an engaging community helps members bystep the social isolation that some people experience as they age. The intangible benefits of membership go well beyond the programs and activities covered by dues. Find out more about Mill City Commons membership benefits here.
