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.

Giving back with songs and hard work!

The Youth Choir of the Finger Lakes made a visit to Clark Meadows recently.  According to Founder and Artistic Director, Kristy Ingersoll, it is important for her students to give back to their communities with their voices and some hard work. Not only did our residents enjoy the musical selections presented, but reaped the beautiful benefits of their planting flowers to enjoy for the Summer season. 

The mission of this program is to provide youth with an engaging music experience that fosters critical thinking and discovery learning; sharing emotional and artistic expression through performance. And of course to have fun doing it.  A special thank you goes to Mrs. Ingersoll and her youth choir for choosing Clark Meadows for their service project.  For more details go to www.ycfl.org.
