Arts and Culture Report

What a busy month we have had!

Crochet Club

The Crochet group has been on hold for a few weeks but will continue when everyone is available. It’s been fun for the group to get together to learn and socialize. Our Spring Card Making was once again a fun time for all. Thank you Denise Hosier for hosting and doing the prep work. The cards were delivered to the Activities Department at Atlas Nursing Home for the Long-Term Care patients.
