Check out what we have been up to!

From January through May we offered another round of Baima Family Sponsored Glass Field Trips! 11 schools and organizations were granted a free glassblowing workshop or demo awarded by the Baima Family Sponsorship. Thank you Baima Family for once again helping us offer this opportunity!
Opening Minds Through Art, an Alzheimer's and dementia art program, wrapped up the Spring 2025 session with a "pop up" exhibit on our main campus. Artists and volunteers spent 8 weeks creating artworks and sharing community. Thank you to St. Joseph's Home Legacy of Care Fund for supporting OMA at SAA!
