University Village is proud to be a Masterpiece Living retirement community. Masterpiece Living has defined a new reality about aging and senior living. Masterpiece Living emphasizes self-esteem. It empowers residents to pursue a lifestyle that maximizes learning, growing, and meaning in their lives.

This revolutionary whole-person, whole community initiative promotes a culture of successful aging. It is a comprehensive, research-based, and measurable alternative that will help older adults make the kinds of choices that contribute to a long and healthy life. Embracing our Masterpiece Living lifestyle at University Village connects residents with other active seniors. It also helps maintain physical and intellectual growth, which can minimize the risk of disease and disability.

Masterpiece Living’s roots stem from the landmark 10-year MacArthur Foundation study into the principles of "Successful Aging." This study found that 70% of how we age is due to our lifestyle choices. Only 30% is determined by our genes.

Experts in the field of aging, including Dr. Robert Kahn of the MacArthur Study on Aging, along with top researchers and medical professionals from the Mayo Clinic developed the Masterpiece Living experience. The Mayo Clinic provides analysis and support for those enrolled in the initiative.

As part of our dedication to providing the best in senior living, Masterpiece Living is available to all University Village residents. By developing a personalized plan, with measurable results that include goal setting and customized feedback, Masterpiece Living enables each resident to achieve their individual goals and defy the stereotypes of aging.

Masterpiece Living at University Village offers residents a network of positive relationships that nurture ongoing physical, intellectual, spiritual, and social fulfillment to enhance the senior living experience.
