Bring on the joy! LBSAC residents in Long Beach, CA, celebrated the season with three festive events: a holiday jewelry and crafts sale in the main lobby; an “All that Jazzy Holiday Soiree,” produced by resident diva Gwendolyn, who was joined by her talented daughter in the Piano Lobby; and a holiday recipe swap with yuletide picture posing that was held during the Impact Meal.
