We recently visited our ArtsWork program & caught up with one of the talented participants, Stacey Mania! Stacey’s passion for painting florals shines through in her vibrant work, but her second love for sunflowers & sunsets brings the warmth of summer to life during the cold winter months. "I really like to paint flowers like sunflowers, tulips & marigolds. They're beautiful and make me feel happy!" Stacey’s work will also be featured in the exhibit "Color Fields and Floral Musings: Botanical-themed Representation and Abstraction" at the Buffalo Botanical Gardens, beginning TODAY! The exhibit runs through March 23rd, 2025. _____ Check out some of her featured artwork: 🌻"Sunflower" – Acrylic on canvas, 12 x 9 in. 🌅 "Sunset" – Acrylic on canvas, 9 x 12 in. _____ Tickets: https://ow.ly/aajV50UKNqM #ArtsWork #PeopleInc #BuffaloNY #SummerVibesInWinter #SunflowersAndSunsets #BuffaloBotanicalGardens #CreativeExpression #WhereYourWorldOpensUp

Meet John & Glenn, BFFs & talented artists at our People Inc. ArtsWork Hertel Studio. (for those that don't know, 'BFF' = Best Friends Forever 😉) Art is a powerful way for the people we support to express themselves, explore emotions & connect with others. For John & Glenn, their creativity not only fuels their artistic journey but also deepens their lifelong bond. Their friendship began in childhood, sparked by a simple exchange in a program parking lot. Glenn’s brother, Dan, remembers it vividly: “Glenn was so outgoing & most people didn’t even respond to him. But John did & they’ve been inseparable ever since.” Their inspiring creations will be featured in the exhibit "Color Fields and Floral Musings: Botanical-themed Representation and Abstraction" at the Buffalo Botanical Gardens, beginning this Thursday, January 23rd; running to March 23rd, 2025. Come experience their unique perspective & the creativity they bring to the community through their art. Don’t miss this incredible exhibit! _____ Tap for Tickets: https://ow.ly/YvAX50UKNqL _____ #PeopleInc #BuffaloNY #ArtsWork #BuffaloArt #BuffaloBotanicalGardens #WNY #BFF #WhereYourWorldOpensUp

We're Brewing Up Kindness at People Inc.! ____ Throughout the month, some of the people we support visit the VA Hospital to volunteer their time by passing out coffee - along with smiles 😃 - from a coffee cart. A simple, yet meaningful impact. With friendly greetings, they're able to connect with veterans, offering not only a warm cup of coffee but also kindness, conversation & sometimes even crossword puzzles to lift spirits. This opportunity has a profound impact on everyone involved... For the volunteers, it builds confidence, fosters new life skills & teaches meaningful communication. For the veterans, it’s a moment of camaraderie & care, reminding them they’re appreciated & never alone. These small but powerful interactions really do prove the ripple effect of giving back. Together, we’re learning that a little warmth can go a long way. ____ #PeopleInc #BuffaloNY #Veterans #VAHospitalBuffalo #GivingBack #Volunteering #CommunityImpact #WhereYourWorldOpensUp #InclusionMatters #Coffee #IDD
