Aberdeen Heights Art is Ageless® features senior artists

Local senior artists will be celebrated April 28 at Aberdeen Heights, 575 Couch Ave., as the community hosts its annual Art is Ageless® exhibit and continues to celebrate the Art is Ageless® program.

Art is Ageless is a trademarked program of Aberdeen Heights’ parent company, PMMA (Presbyterian Manors of Mid-America®). The program offers senior artists the opportunity to share and display their artwork and reaffirms the agelessness of human creativity.

“It’s inspiring to see the beautiful pieces these seniors have created,” said Christie Wolff, executive director at Aberdeen Heights. “The joy it brings to them and others is wonderful, and that’s something we want to celebrate and share with the entire Kirkwood community.”

The first Art is Ageless calendar was published in 1981, featuring art from Presbyterian Manor community residents. Since then, the program has expanded to include a juried art competition open to all seniors age 65 and older.

The Art is Ageless exhibit will be open to residents from 10 a.m. – 4 p.m. April 28 by reservation and feature works from local artists. Works of art include acrylics, oils, photography and various other mediums, ranging from amateur to professional levels. Winning pieces at the community level move on to a masterpiece level judging to determine which pieces are featured in the annual Art is Ageless calendar and note cards.

In addition to the exhibit, Aberdeen Heights also will hold a reception to announce the winners for their residents from 4 – 6:30 p.m. April 28. Please RSVP to Susan Press at 314-909-6083.
