The art work on display in the Clinical Learning Center and
on the 3rd floor outside of the Geriatrics Department represents
the work of older adult artists living in the
Tallahassee area. These artists have loaned their work for our
enjoyment and to increase awareness of local art programs, to
enhance appreciation of the diverse talents of older adults, and
to explore the contribution of art to enhance quality of life.
Each artist is a member of the Tallahassee Senior Center for
the Arts, a program of Tallahassee Senior Services, a division
of the city's Neighborhood and Community Services department.
Founded in 1980, the Center for the Arts offers a supportive
environment for both beginning and advanced artists to receive
guidance from experienced instructors.
Senior art students also benefit from ongoing art exhibits, workshops,
and opportunities to display and sell their art. Ongoing classes
include portraiture, sculpture, mixed media, drawing, and
painting classes in oil, acrylic and watercolor. Nearly 100
participants attend class each week. It is funded through
student fees, generous donations, and fundraising efforts by the
Tallahassee Senior Citizens Foundation.
Faculty, staff, and
students at FSU College of Medicine appreciate the opportunity to partner with
Tallahassee Senior Center and its artists with support from the
Donald W. Reynolds Foundation in bringing art to the community.
