Upcoming Gallery Exhibition at SSC: Finding Beauty in the Everyday
We’re inviting artists to share work for our upcoming gallery exhibition, Finding Beauty in the Everyday. This exhibition celebrates beauty living in the ordinary. The small, overlooked moments that make up daily life — the chipped mug you reach for every morning, sunlight across the kitchen table, the beauty and comfort these moments provoke.
Artwork that captures the meaning, beauty, and stories found in everyday life—whether through ordinary objects, daily routines, or creatively reused materials—highlighting the poetry, humor, and memories within the familiar. If you have a piece or story that you believe would make an addition to our themed exhibition please do not hesitate to submit your work.

Spa Day was a big hit with our residents! 💆‍♀️✨ The room was filled with relaxation and laughter as everyone enjoyed a little pampering — from nail polishing and soothing face masks to the classic cucumbers-on-the-eyes spa moment.

We are also so grateful to Ruth and Sandy for volunteering their time to give hand massages and apply make-up. Your kindness, care, and gentle touch made the day extra special.

A heartfelt thank you to Thrivent for sponsoring this special day and helping us create such a fun and relaxing experience.

Our residents truly loved being treated to a little luxury! 💅🥒

🌿 Recycling Meets Creativity at Sheboygan Senior Community! 🌼
Today our residents and volunteers rolled up their sleeves for a fun and meaningful recycling project — turning old menus into beautiful handmade paper!
First, the menus were shredded by hand, then blended with water to create paper pulp. From there, the pulp was placed into tubs where residents added their own special touches: flower seeds, dried petals, glitter, and more. Using screens, they collected the mixture and pressed it into sheets of new paper.
The handmade paper is now drying and will be one of the featured works of art at our next gallery opening on May 1st. 🌸✨
📅 Please save the date!
We can’t wait to showcase this unique project and celebrate the creativity of our community.

🌟 Community Giving in Action! 🌟
Today at Sheboygan Senior Community, our residents spent the morning volunteering their time and creativity to decorate meal bags for our fellow nonprofit friends at Fresh Meals On Wheels of Sheboygan County, Inc.
The room was filled with conversation, laughter, colorful designs, and a shared sense of purpose. 🎨💬❤️
We had a wonderful time talking, decorating, and giving back to our community—one bag at a time. Thank you to everyone who joined in to help brighten someone’s day!
