EVERYTHING LISTED UNDER: Art is Ageless

Every year, we’re inspired by the talent and creativity of senior artists in the Rolla community. Recently, we announced the 2021 winners of the annual Art Is Ageless® juried competition at Rolla Presbyterian Manor.

Local senior artists will be celebrated April 26 through 29 at Rolla Presbyterian Manor, as the community hosts its annual Art is Ageless® exhibit and continues to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the Art is Ageless® program. Works will be on exhibit at the community for residents only. The Art is Ageless exhibit will be held virtually for friends of the program on the community’s Facebook page. Winners will be announced at 2 p.m. April 29 on Facebook Live.

Artists bring their creativity to live in a variety of ways, from painting to needlework to 3D art. Rolla Presbyterian Manor is looking for works by area artists age 65 and older for its annual Art is Ageless juried exhibit and competition.

Textile artist Linda McCoy was “totally thrilled” to be a winner in her first Art is Ageless competition. She learned about the annual exhibition and competition because she volunteers as a senior companion at Rolla Presbyterian Manor.

Four local artists are winners in the annual Ageless® juried competition. Works by Ellen Reynolds will appear in the 40th anniversary calendar and greeting cards, a needlepoint piece by Linda McCoy will also appear in the calendar, and Art is Ageless greeting cards will feature the creative output of Sophia deLaat and Sandra Ford. Congratulations to each of these senior artists, who prove that art truly is ageless.
