New, creative ways to move at Factory Street Studio! Two, new classes for older adults. See details in post!

We’re really excited about this!

Over the past few years, Factory Street Studio has continued to build programming that intentionally includes older adults, a clear sign that people of all ages belong in creative, community spaces. If you’re 50+, or if you know someone who is, we really hope you’ll consider checking this out. Participation matters and programs like this make our community stronger, more inclusive, and more welcoming for people of all ages.

Classes run from January 12th-April 25th and they’re offering two options:
• A seated class on Tuesdays from 12–1
• A standing class on Wednesdays from 1–2

Bonus: there’s food and fellowship afterward, because connection matters just as much as movement.

We are (deer)ly thankful for the support of our volunteers, donors, and partners in helping provide food to the community.

We were able to serve 89 households at our pantry distribution last night. It wouldn’t have been possible without the community members, OU staff and members who welcomed and assisted our visitors. It’s thanks to .ohio.foodbank and and some generous donors that we had a variety of options, and .seo that folks had transportation home. You have our gratitude, and happy holidays!
