Leprechauns!

Our March resident collaborated art piece this month consisted of creating a rainbow and turning everyone into a leprechaun. The residents love to look at it, recognize their friends and find themselves. We took this a step further and turned all Department Heads and our Executive Director into leprechauns as well!
