OWC is thrilled to announce a new partnership with the South Windsor Senior Center!
This past week, Brenden and Kevin stepped up in a big way—serving lunch while following dietary guidelines and maintaining top-notch kitchen sanitation. Both gentlemen truly enjoyed the experience, and the seniors loved interacting with them!
Cindy, their Job Coach, shared that “Brenden and Kevin did an amazing job and acted like true professionals!”
Partnerships like this not only provide valuable vocational training but also allow OWC to give back to the communities we support. It’s a win-win situation!

🎭 Master of Puppets! 🎭
Our DSO program had an unforgettable day with Tom Tuke, a graduate of the UConn Puppet Arts Program, who didn’t just perform—he invited our participants to be part of the show!
From exploring how marionettes move to trying out puppetry techniques themselves, everyone had the chance to experience the art behind the scenes. Tom shared stories from his journey, starting in Aotearoa/New Zealand, and gave our group a glimpse into the world of professional puppetry, including his performances at Bread and Puppet (VT), Puppet Showplace (Boston), and the New York Puppet Fringe Festival.
It was a day full of creativity, laughter, and learning! 🌟
