CommonBond Communities, an affordable housing provider and Seeding Vitality Arts® Minnesota grantee, featured the work of residents who participated in The Drawing Project, an arts class for older adults, in a February event. Once again, the power of learning, making and sharing the arts shone through. At the event, one resident noted that prior to this program, the community had felt stale, that residents almost never came out of their apartments to socialize, and that she had become very isolated. She signed up for the classes purely out of curiosity and they changed her life. In fact, she said, the entire community changed; the class gave residents something they could relate about, and now they are constantly engaging in conversation and have developed meaningful friendships.
