Music During Lunch
We’ve heard from our community that they’d love to have musical performances a few times a week to accompany our delicious and nutritious from scratch meals. The Senior Center currently has a piano that is in need of repair and we’d like to eventually undertake that repair (volunteers are welcome to help) to bring music back to the dining hall. In the interim we invite the community to reach out to us and schedule a free musical performance to serenade the seniors and community during lunch time. While take out and grab in go are very popular among our community we want to remind the community that we are open four days a week for dine in services and we are hoping to sweeten the deal with music and community connection downtown in our dining hall at the Ross Aragon Community Center. Stay tuned for a future schedule, we look forward to showcasing some of Pagosa’s local talent. If you are musically inclined/talented and would like to share your gifts, please contact [email protected]. Next FREE art class at the Senior Center will be Tuesday, March 28th at 1:15 PM. No reservations are required but space is limited so be sure to be there by 1:15. The class will last approximately an hour and a half. Have you ever wondered how lilies came to be at Easter? In this class we’ll be exploring that answer as well as making some lilies from paper. No art skill is required for this class – just a desire to have fun and learn something about the history of the Easter Lily while making your bouquet. All materials will be provided including the scissors, paper and glue. Templates will be provided to trace and cut out the various parts that go into making this lovely lily. All ages are invited so find a friend and bring them along. Our teacher will again be Denise Fisk, who is a retired elementary art teacher from Iowa. So come and hear about the traditions around the lily and help us bring Spring time to life in this special
