Marriott House and Lodge will celebrating National Arts in Care Homes Day on the 24th September 2020. This year’s theme is Creative Communities.

During the last few months, we have seen the most amazing examples of how the arts and creativity have been used to build community and keep care settings connected.

These examples have included virtual choirs, window art, poetry pen pals, online ceramic sessions, art packs, live-streamed concerts, craft activities, garden concerts etc.

We would like to invite the local community to join us with there stories of how they have maintained contact with there communities. This could include themed art work, have you attended a 'virtual tour' of an art gallery? 'Have you been involved in virtual events? All stories can be sent to sarah.harding@barchester.com.

On the day we will be holding an art exhibition so please send us your photos or art work so that we can put it on display for all to enjoy. Anything you wish to send can be sent to sarah.harding@barchester.com. This is open to all age groups !
We do hope you will join us for this virtual event!
