Thembalami Care Centre and Max Ordman Deaf Association (MODA) were abuzz with colour and creativity as residents picked up their paintbrushes once again for a fabric painting session on May 20.
This activity marks the revival of a much-loved programme that had been on pause since last year. Now set to take place twice a month, the initiative aims to foster hand-eye co-ordination and encourage social interaction in a relaxed and enjoyable setting.
Residents enthusiastically painted fabric pieces, with plans underway to turn their artistic efforts into stylish scatter cushions.
“It’s more than just painting – it’s a fun way to keep minds and hands active, reduce boredom, and bring our community closer together,” says occupational therapist Tsakani Shihlomule.
