We LOVE SilverKite. It is a HUGE relief for staff to not have to choose an art project and purchase the supplies. We love how amazing art projects are delivered straight to our door! I don't know who loves SilverKite more: the residents or the staff. Keep them coming, please!!
About Creative Community Kits
SilverKite's Creative Community kits are fully prepped art activity boxes geared towards older adults. The kits include eight workshops & are shipped to you with all supplies included, instructions on how to facilitate the activity, and a link to an accompanying playlist.

Who are Creative Community Kits for?
Creative Community kits are designed for older adults in skilled nursing, memory care, or other assisted living facilities.
We know that planning programming, gathering supplies, and then facilitating an activity can be difficult when you already have a busy schedule.

Every quarter, we create a series of seasonal Creative Community Kits that will facilitate creativity, connection, and fun for your residents.
