CHALK PASTEL BIRDS: ART WORKSHOPS FOR OLDER ADULTS

Located At Various Mississauga Libraries

Ages 55+

Our goal is to help alleviate the loneliness and invisibility that seniors experience in our society.

Seniors tend to use their left brain functions – routine tasks and activities – more as they age and the creative side, less.

We use art throughout our programs activating the right brain, their creative side. Seniors who have never picked up a paintbrush begin to create a work of art with ease. These art workshops are delivered by Visual Arts Mississauga through our partnership with the Library.

Drop-in – Admittance on the day of the activity is first come-first served.
