The inspiration for this project is a small wall quilt consisting of four fabric folk art sunflowers. The students and residents created individual panels using the basic design of the inspiration but adding their own perspective to their project. The finished panels will be used as door decorations.

Residents, staff and volunteers also built a “Residents’ Creations” exhibit for the annual Art is Ageless® exhibit.
