About this event

Discover the possibilities of Virtual Reality! Seniorocity Immersive™ brings immersive, guided experiences to older adults who may no longer be able to travel easily. Facilitated in partnership with NuVistas VR, the program helps participants explore meaningful places, reconnect with memories, and stay socially engaged through shared virtual experiences. How It Works 1. A guided on-site session-A facilitator introduces the experience, helps participants get comfortable, and remains present throughout. 2. Immersive experience-Participants experience carefully selected immersive environments such as natural settings, travel destinations, and meaningful places. 3. Shared reflection and connection-The experience continues after the headset comes off through conversation, storytelling, and renewed engagement. About Terry Polyák, the facilitator Terry Polyák, founder of NuVistas VR and Founding Implementation Partner for Seniorocity Immersive, helps bring immersive virtual reality experiences directly to older adults and community partners through thoughtful, guided facilitation.Through mobile outreach, hands-on implementation, and real-world relationship building, Terry helps ensure that immersive technology becomes meaningful engagement—not just equipment. His work focuses on helping older adults reconnect with curiosity, conversation, and shared experiences that reduce isolation and strengthen wellbeing. Questions?
