Art for a Difference Day

Presented by Kennedy Heights Arts Center at Kennedy Heights Arts Center, Cincinnati OH

Jan 18 2021
Art for a Difference Day

In honor of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Day we are doing a very special (remote) art project! This day of service encourages youth to experience the benefits of volunteering, giving kindness, and using their creative talents to make a difference!

Every year, Kennedy Heights Arts Center partners with a local non-profit to create artworks that are given to that organization to benefit their mission and the people they serve. This year, Kennedy Heights Arts Center and Episcopal Retirement Services (ERS) have teamed up to combat social isolation and deliver joy to our region’s seniors.

Due to COVID-19, this year’s Art for a Difference project will be conducted remotely. Youth ages 5-17 are invited to participate at no cost.

You are invited to create a handmade gift and personalized card for an older adult in need. Families will pick-up a free kit which includes all materials and instructions to make a handcrafted item and card. Create the items at home, then drop it off at the Art Center by 5pm to be delivered to a senior living in one of the ERS communities.

Participation for youth ages 5-17 is free, but pre-registration is required. Registration deadline is January 16 at 5:00pm.

9:00 am – 10:00 am: Pick-up Joy Delivery Kit
