| Adult
Day Center's Photo Club Proves It's A Snap!
More
than a dozen shutterbugs in the Adult Day Center Photo Club
armed themselves with pocket cameras and fanned across Boston
during the last 18 months, capturing the diversity of the
city. The resulting photographs were recently on display in
a special exhibit at the Massachusetts
Audubon Society’s Boston Nature Center.
The exhibit,
titled "Our Life, Our World," featured photos taken
during field trips to Jamaica Pond, sites around Mattapan,
Mozart Park and the JFK Library & Museum.
The project
gave participants a way to reminisce and socialize while the
exhibit provided, “clients the opportunity to have their
work recognized. It shows they’re doing quality work
that’s being recognized in the community,” noted
ADC Activity Director Morning Harris.
Rogerson’s
adult day health programs in Roslindale,
Jamaica
Plain and Brookline
provide over 300 of the area’s elders each year with
nursing care, hot meals, a fitness program and a variety of
activities such as the Photo Club and music therapy. These
therapies and classes provide outlets for creativity, self-expression
and a means to communicate past experiences.
Rogerson
relies on funding from charitable contributions for many of
the activities within our adult day health programs. The Adult
Day Center Photo Club was begun with a grant from the Grand
Circle Foundation, the charitable arm of Grand
Circle Travel.
