Still Creating III shows off seniors’ artistic talents

NORWICH – The Chenango County Council of the Arts is set to host the third “Still Creating” senior art exhibit, with an opening reception planned for 5 to 7 p.m. Friday at the council’s 27 West Main St. gallery.

Still Creating III: The Artistry of Long-Term Care Residents, will run through Oct. 12, and features the artwork of 56 senior residents of Chase Memorial Nursing Home, the Oxford Veterans’ Home, Valley View Manor, Chenango Valley Home and the UHS Chenango Memorial Hospital, according to Joyce Zummo, operations and program director at the Council of the Arts.

“This is one of everybody’s favorite shows,” said Zummo. “Some of the artists don’t even begin their artwork until they enter a home. It’s such a reaffirmation that we show creativity in every phase of life.”
