Parsons PMMA 2022 Art is Ageless® exhibit features senior artists

Local senior artists will be celebrated April 4 through 8 at Parsons Presbyterian Manor, 3501 Dirr Ave., as the community hosts its annual Art is Ageless® exhibit.

Works will be on exhibit at the community by appointment only. The Art is Ageless exhibit will be held virtually for friends of the program on the community’s Facebook page, Facebook.com/ParsonsPresbyterianManor. Winners will be announced at 2 p.m. on April 7 with winning works of art viewable on Facebook.

Art is Ageless is a trademarked program of 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 Natae Nash, marketing director. “The joy it brings to them and others is wonderful, and that’s something we want to celebrate and share with the entire Parsons 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 aged 65 and older.

Winning pieces at the community level move on to a masterpiece level judging to determine which pieces are featured in the annual calendar and note cards.
