For National Art in Care Homes Day in September, our residents made some lovely flowers out of felt, butterflies from paper and origami tulips, merging them all together to create a Lincroft Meadow canvas.
We made two canvases in total which now hang proudly on our wall and our residents had a brilliant time creating them. Following the same theme for Alzheimer’s Day, we worked together to make a heart made up of forget-me-nots that each resident had individually made. Using a number of artistic techniques and materials to make the flowers, our residents enjoyed working together, whilst remaining apart.
