We had such a wonderful day with Ryan Frederick, Founder & CEO of Here!

Ryan joined our Community Services team to visit our affordable housing at Eastern Park, Western Park, and our Senior Centers. Along the way, he connected with team members, explored programs, and shared thoughtful insights that will help shape the future of our services.

His curiosity, kindness, and genuine interest in our communities made the visit both inspiring and fun. Together, we’re imagining bold and innovative ways to create joyful experiences for older adults across the Bay Area.

Behind the scenes at Tango from Heaven (Tango del Cielo) at The Tamalpais Marin!

Last week, residents and future residents were treated to not one, but two intimate performances by world-renowned harpist Anna Maria Mendieta and her ensemble, in partnership with the Marin Symphony. The auditorium came alive with tango, flamenco, Spanish classical, and Latin jazz.

From warm conversations in the lobby to the first notes on the harp, the excitement was contagious. Smiles, applause, and “wow” moments filled the room — “I’ve never seen anything like this… I’m speechless.” “It was beautiful!”

The evening ended with a cocktail hour on the terrace, overlooking the sparkling waterways of the Greenbrae canals. A perfect finish to a day filled with music, joy, and community.

Life at The Tamalpais Marin is about more than where you live, it’s about experiences that move you and connections that stay with you.

Did you know?
1 in 3 adults age 50+ only talk to someone outside their home once a week—or less, according to the Mather Institute.

This kind of social isolation can quietly impact health, raising the risk of anxiety, memory decline, and even stroke.

The good news? Staying connected helps protect your brain, boosts happiness, and leads to a longer, more joyful life.

At Sequoia Living communities, connection is at the heart of everything.
Join a book group.
Try a painting class.
Share stories over lunch with neighbors who quickly become friends.

In community living, you don’t have to plan your social calendar alone. Community living makes it easy to stay engaged and supported.
