MORE THAN JUST A MEAL | Silvera’s Krista Gerelus, Technical Advisor, Dining Services, has developed a new Respectful Dining program at Silvera’s Westview Town Suites, which is transforming dinnertime into a new experience. Krista believes dining is more than just a meal; it’s an opportunity to connect, engage and enhance residents’ quality of life. The program includes four in-person staff training modules and focuses on plated service. Since the program’s launch in early August, feedback from residents and employees alike has been overwhelmingly positive.

TIE DYE | Last week, residents of Aspen Commons had the chance to try their hand at tie-dying. They created colorful bandanas inspired by the beautiful summer weather. This project provided an excellent opportunity to explore different dyeing patterns, embrace imperfection and enjoy the art-making process. Everyone had a wonderful time learning something new and getting a little messy along the way!

EXPLORE | This month’s Explore Program took residents from Westview Town Suites and Westview Residence West on a delicious cultural journey to SUMAQ, a beautiful Peruvian restaurant on 17th Avenue. Residents enjoyed an afternoon filled with vibrant flavours, stunning décor and warm hospitality. From the moment we walked in, the colorful and authentic atmosphere transported us straight to Peru.

WOOL TO WONDER | Residents in our supportive living communities created beautiful felted owls through a unique program designed to stimulate the brain’s right hemisphere and enhance cognitive agility. This process requires significant focus and encourages creativity while fostering connections among participants. A big thank you to artists Shellie Jones and Nicole Eastabrooks for sharing their passion and introducing this wonderful activity. Pictured here are Silvera’s Life, Learning and Leisure Facilitators proudly holding owls created by residents in their community.

ART SHOW | In July, residents of Aspen Commons transformed the Atrium into a mini art gallery to showcase their work! Numerous impressive pieces were on display, highlighting a wealth of creativity. This art show served not only as an opportunity to exhibit art but also as a reminder that anyone can be an artist if they are willing to try something new, including Laura, who’s pictured here. Laura is an Aspen resident who rediscovered her incredible talent and passion for painting in recent years after participating in a YMCA art class.
