The Center on the Hill: An Update for while we are closed.

The Center on the Hill will remain closed until Monday May 4th. Classes, special events and lectures that were scheduled for April will be rescheduled for the Fall if we are unable to fit them into the May/June calendar. For the latest information on the closure, to register for a class in May or June, or to leave me a message please call the center at 215-247-4654.

In the meantime, we hope you will visit our Programs Page HERE (https://www.chestnuthillpres.org/center-on-the-hill/programs/ ) where new content is posted every Monday – Friday at Noon. We have fitness videos you can do from home, messages from our instructors, links to activities, crafts or things you can learn about at home, interactive games you can play with us online (and be entered to win small prizes when the center re-opens), and much more!
