The Bristal at York Avenue invited residents to explore their artistic side in a hands-on class in the Creative Haven.
Taking inspiration from masterworks like The Peonies by Henri Matisse and Self-Portrait by Vincent Van Gogh, residents created their own unique pieces using the modalities they enjoy most. From sculpting delicate clay flowers to painting vibrant watercolor interpretations of famous paintings, the session encouraged individual expression and shared creativity. Working side by side, residents found joy in the process as much as in the finished art, which made for a colorful afternoon of imagination and community.
Programming of this nature at The Bristal highlights how art nurtures wellness, offering not only a creative outlet for the individual, but also opportunities for reflection and connection.
