Local artist, Benji Carr, was on site to show his latest project to our residents.  The Ghost of Roseland sculpture is his latest commissioned piece.  He brought the model to show us how it will look and explained that there will be moving parts.  What a thrill for our staff and residents to get this up close and personal presentation of such an exciting project.  The discussion brought out a lot of reminiscing about Roseland Park.  So many of our residents grew up in Canandaigua and Rosleand Park was a big part of their youth.  The art reflects the history of our town and the importance that the park played.  Pat Rini Rohrer, gallery owner and Art Tuppen, Canandaigua local, were two of our enthusiastic audience participants.  They are photographed here with the artist.

The Senior Signers present a holiday program!

The Senior Signers present a holiday program!

Jody Wilbur and her "Senior Signers"; her ASL language students, performed a beautiful Christmas program this week.  Residents worked very hard for many weeks learning to sign Christmas songs.  The show kicked off with an upbeat version of Jingle Bells, sung by The Drifters. The next two numbers, they were accompanied by our Music Therapist, Katherine McGraff.  She played her guitar and sang The First Noel and Silent Night.  There may not have been too many dry eyes in the audience after the finale.  A resident had suggested learning the sign language for "Mary Did you Know?" and Jody found a powerful rendition of this song sung by CeeLo Green.  We are so very proud of our Senior Signers as they portrayed this beautiful song for the holiday season.  Thank you Jody and all of our resident signers!
