Evergreen Art Classes for
seniors aged 55 and above​

At Gallery J, we want to provide a space for seniors to engage in visual art activities as they age gracefully. 

Evergreen Arts encompass a diverse and vibrant spectrum of creative expression for them. It plays a crucial role in enhancing their mental and emotional well-being, fostering social connections, and providing avenues for personal growth and self-expression, which they can share widely to friends and loved ones.

Key Benefits:

• Mental Health: Participating in arts activities such as painting, sculpture, can contribute to improved mental health in seniors. It encourages cognitive stimulation, which are vital for maintaining overall well-being.

• • Emotional Well-being: Artistic expression enables seniors to explore and communicate their emotions. It can provides a sense of purpose and accomplishment, boost self-esteem, and alleviate stress and anxiety.
  • Social Engagement: Senior arts programs often foster social interaction and community engagement. They provide opportunities for seniors to connect with peers, share experiences, and build meaningful relationships, combating feelings of loneliness and isolation.
  • Cognitive Function: Engaging in creative activities stimulates cognitive functions such as memory, problem solving, and abstract thinking. This can help seniors maintain mental acuity and potentially reduce the risk of cognitive decline.

• Legacy and Storytelling: Many seniors use art to reflect on their life experiences, culture, and personal histories.Through their creations, they can preserve and share their stories with younger generations, leaving a lasting legacy.
