ACTIVE OLDER ADULTS

HEART STRINGS & APRON STRINGS Aprons represent people who have loved and served us. Pati presents her colorful collection of vintage aprons and enchanting stories of the people who wore them. She lovingly honors the memory of all those industrious “church basement” mothers and grandmothers with her good humor, poems, songs and tender tales. This is a great feel good program of times past.
