Senior Center Hosts Final Glazing Event
Last Thursday was a cold day outside, but it was certainly warm and inviting in the basement of Town Hall. Many thanks to Courtney and our friends at the Westbrook Senior Center for hosting the final bowl-glazing session for the Empty Bowls Project. We enjoyed an afternoon of inspired glazing, interesting conversation, and a great spirit of community. Thanks to Erik Becker and to Lydia from WHS for joining us, and to our WMS students who assisted and glazed as well. Courtney provided pizza and great music. We were so happy that seniors glazed with us and plan to join us at our January dinner. Thanks for making this a perfect ending to the glazing phase of the Empty Bowls Project!

What a lovely occasion! At the Senior Center, it is great to watch art, community, and compassion interact live in this last glazed event. As bowls are handcrafted and glazed, the manner pupils and seniors cooperate and learn from one another gives me optimism for the might of generational interaction. I can see how proud and happy everyone must feel when their completed works are ready. Such projects remind us that creativity feeds the soul and serves as a connection between people, not only as an artistic pursuit.
