Looking for artistic & crafty individuals (who are thrifty too) that can lead our members (individuals with mild to moderate disabilities from stroke) in an art project. It can be more crafty or more artsy. We will leave that up to you. We would love to find someone that is willing to do this type of class once a month but we would be certainly happy to have a multitude of different volunteers involved as well.
We are open Monday through Friday, 8:30 to 3:00. We have a great group that loves to do these kinds of projects. We hope that you can help!
