About Us


Founded in 1976, the Cook Street Village Activity Centre Society is a non-profit, community-driven organization dedicated to connection, wellness, and lifelong learning. For fifty years, we have served as a trusted neighborhood gathering place in the heart of Victoria.

While our journey began as a dedicated haven for seniors, our doors and our mandate have expanded to embrace community members of all ages, backgrounds, and walks of life. Whether you are dropping in for a cup of tea, joining a yoga class, exploring creative arts, or seeking a quiet place to read, our Centre is powered by dedicated volunteers and neighbors who believe that everyone deserves a place to belong.

This is more than just a Centre. It is a community.

Come for the fun, stay for the friends.
We can’t wait to meet you!
