Ian Todreas is asking for help spreading the word about a project he initiated:
“Diving into a creative pursuit is a great way to fight anxiety, depression, and loneliness while having fun and opening up new avenues to connect with others. Do you know any Belmont seniors who are feeling a bit bored, isolated, or in need of a new pursuit? Using the honorarium I received from the BAA, for the transformer box project, I am sponsoring a new pilot initiative called “Paint Pals.” I’m offering a free set of watercolor paints, a brush, and paper to any Belmont senior along with an hour of guidance and instruction via Zoom or outside socially distant, fully masked. No prior art experience necessary–just a
willingness to play with and explore this wonderful medium. If any BAA member would like to step in, your participation is more than welcome. For more information, please contact me at
