In November, at Burbank Senior Artists Colony in Burbank, CA, Program Director Megan showed resident crafters, experienced and new, how to create custom holiday and home wooden signs. Residents were given custom stencils the students designed themselves, then they were able to customize the sign with paint choices and technique. The students loved how, although they had chosen similar stencils, their signs looked so different with the application of a little creativity.
Research demonstrates that participating in arts activities improves the health and quality of life of older people.
