MILLBROOK — The Artists Group at The Fountains in Millbrook was happy to present its Annual Art Show after having missed the opportunity to do so last year due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
On Tuesday, June 29, the artists held a reception in the auditorium at the Millbrook senior living facility. The judge for the exhibit was well-known Brazilian-born abstract artist Lilliana Washburn, who created her first work of art at the age of 37.
Fountains residents have a dedicated art studio on the premises and are guided by art teacher Ellen O’Shea.
Community Life Director Lisa Rieckermann is the driving force behind the annual art show.
Refreshments were served, while residents enjoyed the artwork that lined the walls and the wood carvings that were on display throughout the studio. Guests were not allowed.
