Volunteer Opportunity Expanded!

Volunteer Community Service Card Making Opportunity 

Every Wednesday in July and August!

*10:00 AM - Noon 

Arts & Crafts Room

Please join us for a morning of community service to help provide some cheer to veterans.  We are working on writing cheerful messages on patriotic cards to be delivered to veteran patients at the VA hospital in West Roxbury.  We received a donation of approximately 100 blank cards.  Artwork may be added, and craft decorations will be provided.  This is a wonderful opportunity to escape the summer heat and connect with friends and other members of the COA while giving back to the community in our area. 

Please contact us if you are interested in signing up. Drop-in participation is also welcome.  Call us at 781-235-3961 to register.

 * New start time.

The Wellesley Council on Aging (COA) is pleased to announce a new program of art displays in its home at the Tolles Parsons Center (TPC), 500 Washington Street, Wellesley MA.

WHAT: An opportunity for senior artists to share their artwork with other members of the COA and wider Wellesley communities.

WHO: Any Wellesley resident senior (60+), or anyone who has at any time taken a class in a visual art at the COA. Artists who are not members of any art society and have not previously exhibited are encouraged to share their work along with more established artists.

WHEN: The art will be displayed on a quarterly basis, depending on the number of artists and works, and the space available. The first selection of works will be on display starting in September 2023 through December. Registrations for the first works to be hung are now being accepted.

The deadline for artist registrations for the September 2023 display is August 18th. The display will be hung during the last week of August.
