Looking to unleash your creativity but strapped for time? Senior Planet has the solution!
Since 2020, Senior Planet’s “Creative Creations” group has been gathering online weekly to share and collaborate on their artistic endeavors. Whether you’re a seasoned artist or just starting out, everyone is welcome!
The group’s facilitator Andrea Hancock emphasizes the incredible talent and creativity within the group, as well as the warm and welcoming atmosphere that keeps participants coming back and attracting new members.
While Andrea enjoys singing, songwriting, and baking, long-time participant Ana Maria Cruz-Valderrama (pictured at left) indulges in beading, crochet, and painting.
“Creative Creations encourages participants to connect with others, learn new skills, exchange ideas, and simply have a great time,” says Cruz-Valderrama. “I appreciate the socialization and educational opportunities this program provides.”
If you’re looking to reignite an old hobby or join a supportive community of fellow creators, come join us! Bring along your current project, a completed piece, or something you need help with.
Creative Creations meets every Tuesday at 5pm ET – details for the next meeting on 5/14 can be found here. (For a full list of Senior Planet programs, including Creative Creations, click here).
