Art Class - Xmas Ornaments

12/7/2020
Date: Monday, December 7, 2020
Hosted by: River Deep Foundation & Denver SCI HOP
Location: Cottonwood Art Center - Colorado Springs
Participants: Operation TBI Freedom

Art Class - Christmas Ornaments

This is the final art class for the year and we are creating Christmas ornaments and cards. The group of veterans and family member attendees listened to Christmas music and made their festive holiday decorations. Our instructor, Annie Pieper, had a great setup with a bunch of good treats for the kiddos. Due to COVID safety guidelines, the dynamic of the year’s art classes has been a little bit different, but it didn’t stop anyone from enjoying themselves and learning new skills. We are excited to offer this opportunity to more clients and to keep more veterans and their families engaged in life during this especially trying time.
