Sandipity participants’ comments ~~~Fall 2024

"What you get [from the experience] is getting out of your ordinary way of thinking into something fresh and alive and new”---June, Tarrytown, NY, 80s. 

"The Sandipity workshop...was fun and intellectually stimulating. The Sandipity experience reiterated my respect for artists and their ability to create and communicate. Thank you again," ---Lisa, retired physician, 60s 

"The wonders you can make with sand!" ---Betty, Senior Friendship Center member, 80s 

" 'Loam' has long been one of my favorite words. I had fun conveying it and figuring out what the sand would do on the canvas background. It was nice to do, and even somewhat therapeutic; a different head space.” —DD, AI scientist, 35 

"Not at all what I expected. Using sand is a joy, and the tools were wonderful! I think the main thing is, the connective tissue of the exercise itself has led me to make a lot of other connections in my life in the days since..." ---Eve V., retired actor, 70s 

" Overall, it was a perfect afternoon- subtly challenging, visually captivating, and incredibly fun."--Tilly S., award-winning artist, 60s 

“Thank you for bringing this to us” —-Vivian, Senior Friendship Center member
