Our structured approach to art gently encourages focus making it easy for the user to follow instructions without becoming overwhelmed. It also allows space for creative freedom. We love the delicate brush strokes of Margaret’s painting & the bold style of Ann’s. Well done ! 🥰

We’ve had a busy week of Community classes and seen many interpretations of our washing line design! Our art classes are ALL about the process and being in the moment, and we welcome all interpretations 🎨

We enjoyed our collaborative class with @alzscot today at the resource centre in Kilmarnock. It’s always a laugh, but more importantly it’s an hour of respite and support for carers of those living with dementia.

How cute are these hanging decorative hearts? They were made with love by the local Brownie Guides last night and will be for sale at our fundraising coffee morning to make a little bit of money for our charity. A huge thank you to the girls for all their help!

We absolutely love all the extra little details the artists’ can add to this design. And the stories that come with them! Thank you to Natalie at @CraigieCareHome Kilmarnock for having us yesterday.
