Snapshots from Good Neighbor Summer Activities

July 19, 2021 by Marie Jobling

It has been a good summer so far and we are delighted each time we see old friends and new acquaintances in person.   We have been walking, excercising, practicing yoga, doing improv, celebrating birthdays, visiting friends in hospitals and assisted living, honoring those that have passed, standing strong for justice and so much more. 

Here a some snapshots of summer activities from August  

And from July – stay tuned more to come.

Smiling Eyes, Elbow Bumps Galore at Senior Power Event

April 15, 2021 by Deborah Finestone

We’re back in person!

Senior Power’s outdoor event was a big hit, attracting neighbors in the Sunset to enjoy each other’s company once again, plus enjoy the talents of some of our participants.

Old friends who had not seen each other in a year or more bumped elbows and everyone’s eyes conveyed the smiles that masks couldn’t conceal

“It was a homecoming for many Senior Power participants and a tentative step forward into an enveloping community spirit for others,” said Margaret Graf, Senior Power’s fearless leader. “We’re back. We’re stronger than before. We’re together again.”

“Personally, my heart leaped through my ribcage!” she continued. “All thoughts of the past year’s isolation got pushed aside.”

We got to enjoy the beautiful watercolors by James Mao and marvel at succulents that demonstrate the all-too-important resilience we all have inside. Mary Gayle Thomas also shared her affable, personal stories and poems. See more pictures below!

 

Come to the next community event!

Thursday, May 13

9:00 to 1:00

Sunset Wellness Mercantile

37th Ave between Ortega & Pacheco

Drop-in any time during the above hours and say “hello.”

 

We’ll be sharing new exhibits and performances by seniors showing their art, music and stories.

You’ll also find Community Living Campaign’s monthly activity calendar for classes and programs you can enjoy by video or phone. And we’ll have more resources on safety and health for seniors, their families and caregivers.

We’re looking for seniors with talents, hobbies and interests to share!

For more info, to participate, to show off your COVID past-time, your passion, your flair and aptitude — be it musical, artistic or craft — email M. Graf at opoygan1@yahoo.com.

Let’s Make Stuff with d’Arci Bruno: Everyone’s a Critic! (Virtual)

August 16, 2020 by Maia Veres

Join local artist d’Arci Bruno to learn how to look at art critically.

Art Criticism is a critical analysis of an artwork by taking a detailed look at its pros, cons and merits. What happens when you look at an artwork? What do you see? How did the artist do it? Why did the artist create it and what does it mean? Art criticism is responding to, interpreting meaning, and making critical judgments about specific works of art. Learning to analyze artwork in this way also helps you to be a better artist! In this class we will learn to be objective and how give positive and constructive feedback.

For this class you will need: A piece of your own artwork, or an artwork that you admire to practice analyzation and critique. Pen and paper to take notes with. Feel free to work on a project and just listen in…Doodle while you think and think about WHAT and WHY and HOW you are making that doodle!!
