The Art of Serenity

The Art of Serenity

A mountainous scene to calm the soul by Al Johnson

Jody Wilbur, Lifestyle Assistant,  has taught us to celebrate the peace and joy that art can bring during this age of coronavirus.  She has held weekly painting classes for two years.  We've heard about how spending time in nature reduces stress. Well, at Clark Meadows we have found a way to bring the peace of nature into our lives.  It's called landscape art and Al Johnson has exquisitely demonstrated this technique today with his evergreens and mountains painted on a window.  As the paint is drying we admire his work and wonder how it will look in the evening twilight. Our residents will be sure to peek at this scene as the sky changes tonight.

Ferris Hills and Clark Meadows Men's Group enjoys presentation by Tom Mees on Sonnenberg History

Ferris Hills resident Tom Mees recently gave a fascinating presentation on the history of Sonnenberg Gardens & Mansion State Historic Park to our men's group.  With a deep appreciation for local history and a true gift for storytelling, Tom had the audience captivated by his knowledge of this local gem.

In addition to sharing historical insights, Tom enocuraged anyone interested in volunteering at Sonnenberg to get involved - help is always welcome!

One interesting question came up during the discussion: How did Sonnenberg get its name? Tom explained that "Sonnenberg," meaning Sunny Hill in German, was the postal name of the property when it was purchased.  Fittingly, the estate sits at the crest of Fort Hill Avenue.

Tom also shared the story of how Fred and Mary Thompson met: at Mary's father's farewell banquet ball in Albany, NY.  At the time, her father was serving as Governor of New York State.  It was love at first sight.  Just six months later, Fred and Mary were married in the Clark family home, located behind the United Church on Gibson Street.
