Great Photos from our January 17 Musical Art Time!

Dr. Kafka treated us all to a most amazing, inspiring treat of music - it seems he knows hundreds of songs by heart, and plays and sings each one with a totally engaging magical joyous spirit.

First, we all worked on our greeting cards as Dr. Kafka played.  The scene looked pretty much like this:

The Greeting Card outline Nicole provided as a start was aptly called "Guitar Magic":

The group's concentration was impressive

-and the results were fun!

Rose holding up a gorgeous card she created

Lynn sharing her creation - see how different everyone's color choices are - we noticed everyone has their own take, very fun!

Nicole's husband joins in on the fun!

After we finished our cards, came the amazing, unique treat of writing a song with Dr. Kafka - about GRANDMA RUBY - you had to be there to understand how spontaneous and fun that was - we laughed til our sides hurt!

MANY MANY THANKS TO DR. KAFKA FOR MAKING THAT JOYOUS UPLIFTING MEMORY POSSIBLE!
