Art for Seniors

Community Outreach Program for Seniors only, age 55+. 

Each Wednesday WAS-H hosts a free art gathering for Seniors.  Sessions start at 9:30 am and end at 11:00 am (for the live stream class) and 12:00 pm (for the in-person class).  This is a friendly, supportive group for all levels of artists.  Sessions are led by an artist facilitator who provides an image to paint.  Paint along with the class or bring a different project to work on.  Participants bring their own supplies (only water-media, please).  You must register online to participate. During the summertime, this session is often an open studio where there is no artist facilitator, but seniors can come and paint together.
