Celebrating Creativity and Community: Grandma's Hands Arts & Crafts


Hosted at The Silent Task Force, also known as The Peoples House
11410 Renton Ave S, Seattle, WA 98178
Every Wednesday beginning June 26, 2024
11:30 AM - 2:30 PM


Women United is thrilled to present "Grandma's Hands Arts & Crafts," a unique initiative designed to nurture the creative spirit of grandmothers and our senior population. In the often challenging journey of kinship caregiving or navigating the senior years, artistic talents and hobbies can sometimes be set aside. This program aims to revive those talents and provide a space where creativity and community can flourish.


Starting on June 26, 2024, and continuing every Wednesday from 11:30 AM to 2:30 PM at The Silent Task Force (The Peoples House) in Seattle, "Grandma's Hands Arts & Crafts" will bring together seniors for collaborative craft projects. This is more than just an arts and crafts program; it's a celebration of creativity, resilience, and the shared stories of our elders.


By participating in these weekly sessions, seniors will have the opportunity to:

  • Rediscover and refine their artistic skills.
  • Engage in meaningful social interactions, fostering a sense of community.
  • Boost their self-assurance and well-being through creative expression.


We believe that every piece of art created during these sessions will be a testament to the strength, stories, and spirit of our senior participants. It's a chance for them to weave their narratives into beautiful crafts, creating lasting memories and connections.

We welcome all grandmothers and seniors to be part of this inspiring program. Let's come together to celebrate the beauty of creativity and the power of community.
