The Juniper Village at Naples bus is frequently seen out and about in town on exciting adventures. In keeping with our quarterly Alive in all Seasons
healthy aging theme, our residents feasted on a healthy lunch of Asian specialities at Blue Fish. These stimulating outings provide opportunities for our residents to feel meaningfully engaged in the community-at-large. Connections Director, Julie Badour, arranges these resident outings 3 to 4 times a month. Future planned outings include trips to the Naples Museum of Art, the Humane Society of Naples, Mel's Diner, and several scenic tours.
A beautiful June afternoon was spent experiencing a vast array of artwork at the Naples Museum of Art. While touring, our residents were privileged to meet Stephen Knapp, the artist responsible for "Lightpaintings". Mr. Knapp was able to explain his unique works which use a special treated glass that separates light into different frequencies of the spectrum. His exhibit transforms the gallery environment and envelopes viewers in glowing colors. Our Connections Program is responsible for these varied cultural outings and continually seeks fresh venues through which we nurture the spirit of life in our much-loved residents.
