This morning marked the final class of our My Rainbow of Feelings residency with COMPAS Teaching Artist Candice Simpson (breeze art by Candice Simpson), and it was a truly special one! 🎨✨

Participants reflected on their own identities and expressed them on canvas while Candice led a thoughtful discussion about the use of shapes in art and what they can represent. It was wonderful to hear everyone’s unique interpretations. Triangles, rectangles and circles all held different meanings for each artist!

We’re so grateful to Candice for her dedication and for providing such a creative and supportive platform for our clients. Over the past several weeks, we’ve witnessed incredible growth, confidence and self-expression. Thank you, Candice, for inspiring us all through art!

Yesterday we enjoyed the incredible weather with a volunteer double-header! A group from Ford Motor Company Credit spent the morning beautifying our Portland Ave group home in Richfield, while the St Paul Lions Club was raking 'til the sun went down over our 1250 Hoyt group home in Falcon Heights!

A huge thank you to both organizations for your commitment to ensuring that people impacted by disabilities have a bright outdoor space to come home to, just like their neighbors!

This My Rainbow of Feelings class with COMPAS Teaching Artist Candice Simpson (breeze art by Candice Simpson) had an incredible turnout!

In honor of Halloween, this week’s emotion was fear. Clients and staff talked about how fear can mix with other emotions and reflected on times they’ve felt that combination in their own lives. The creativity and interpretations were amazing. No two pieces were alike!

Thank you, Candice, for leading another inspiring class!
