SIMA Painting Workshops
Our monthly painting workshops have been very successful, providing seniors with the opportunity to try painting for the very first time. The instructor, Bita Moradkhani, has been facilitating the workshops. Participants have been enjoying the sessions and describe the teacher as patient, thorough, and a great instructor. These workshops benefit seniors by encouraging creativity, improving mental health, and fostering a sense of accomplishment.
Our painting workshops provide seniors with a creative outlet to express themselves and connect with others. These workshops are held in a welcoming environment where participants can learn new techniques and enjoy the process of creating art. The sessions often conclude with a group discussion, allowing everyone to share their work and experiences.
