"A thing of beauty is a joy forever."
Seniors at the Woodstock Residence Program know that age or season does not limit artistic expression. Each meeting offers the opportunity for seniors to bask in artistic glow. Director Bill Sattan says that with every project seniors climb the ladder of self-esteem one more step.
