FOTT Wellness

Friends on the Town had a blast exploring creativity and wellness this week at Wightman Park! Ally led us in creating inner and outer self portraits of ourselves as she discussed how creativity promotes wellness. It was so fun to see the art that everyone produced!

We worked on a collaborative art project, learned about our FC wellness opportunities and discussed leadership opportunities while working together for a fun “egg drop” game! Be on the lookout for info on a Friendship Circle “Camp Reunion” Open House Day taking place on August 25th – we hope to see you there!
