Essex Senior Center

The Essex Senior Center is located in the heart of Essex just one block off Eastern Avenue. There is no membership fee; however, donations to the Center Enhancement Fund are always welcome. These donations stay within the center and are used to purchase items to enhance the center and offer special programs.
