Volunteer ARTreach Opportunity!

As you may know, our mission is to provide arts enrichment to the community. One way we accomplish this is through painting with the residents at two of our local nursing facilities monthly-Holy Family Manor and Vicentian Home.

We are currently looking for volunteers who would like to assist when available-and best of all-no painting experience necessary!  Your help is needed passing out canvases, brushes, paint & water, and ooohhing and aaahhing over the residents' works of art! The painting activity lasts approximately 1½ to 2 hours.

Holy Family Manor: 2nd Monday of the Month at 2:00pm 
Vincentian Home: last Monday of the Month at 2:00pm

Pre-teen/teen off school for a holiday/in-service day?  What a great way to get them involved in volunteering!  And the residents love seeing the kids!

If you'd to join the painting fun, or have questions, please contact Ruthann at 412-367-2281.

And don't forget to log your volunteer hours here.  Earn a yearly membership, class discount, free class & more!
