Silver Art Experience for Seniors:
OAC is collaborating with regional assisted- and senior-living facilities to provide a unique creative experience for area seniors. Once a month, residents visit the Art Center and are led through an engaging art activity with our project leaders, Jennifer Flynn and Morgan Kelsey. The benefits of encouraging seniors to participate in creative exercises are many: they experience new and increased socialization, practice coordinated motor skills, find an outlet for creative expression, build self esteem, and much more! If you or someone you love would benefit from participating in this program, please contact Morgan Kelsey, OAC Program Coordinator, at 231-352-4151 x 103 or morgan@oliverart.org for more information. |
