Friendship Blossoms through Vitality Arts
Designed to inspire creativity for ages 55 and better, Aroha’s Seeding Vitality Arts® initiative has funded 10 “Interlace: Art to Wear” classes during the span of two years at the Textile Center.
BarbAnn Pappas and Robin Wingo met at one Aroha’s Seeding Vitality Arts® programs at the Textile Center and developed a fast friendship. “We probably would have never met without the ‘Art to Wear’ class,” says Robin. BarbAnn adds: “Robin and I realized we have a common understanding for techniques, and the class was so wonderful because from the very beginning everyone in the class got to experience each other’s creative process week after week.”
BarbAnn, Robin and 14 other Textile Center travelers joined Karl Reichert, Executive Director, on a Moroccan excursion in May of 2019. More details regarding the Morocco trip can be found here.
