🌿 Today we enjoyed a simple and calming herb garden project! Residents planted their own pots of fresh basil to take care of and watch grow. It was a relaxing activity with wonderful smells and great conversation. 🌱💬🪴 #TheArtisWay #weloveseniors #AtrisOutdoors #herbgardenfun … See MoreSee Less

Artis Families – did you know Gorgeous Grandma Day is coming up later this month? 🥰 We’ll be celebrating by making our residents’ suite story displays every bit as beautiful as the Gorgeous Grandmas (and Good-Looking Grandpas!) who call Artis home!
Start gathering those photos, mementos, and fond memories that help celebrate your loved one’s story. We’ll have art supplies on hand to make their shadowbox shine! 🖼️ ✨
It will be an afternoon filled with joy, honor, and love – and prizes will be awarded for the best ones. See the Life Enrichment Director for all the details. See you there! 💙

Happy 4-Year Anniversary, to the wonderful, Chebrie!!
Brie’s dedication, compassion, and the love she shows—both to our residents and fellow team members, never go unnoticed. She leads with heart, and it makes all the difference.
We are truly grateful for everything she does, and we’re lucky to have her as part of our family. Here’s to many more years of making a difference together!

🌈🎉 To celebrate Pride Month, we held our very own colorful parade and baked not one, but TWO beautiful loaves of rainbow bread! 🍞🍞 Each resident made a different color of dough, and we combined them to create vibrant, delicious loaves that were as fun to make as they were to eat. Happy Pride Month to all! ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜 #pridemonth #TheArtisWay #loveislove #atriscelebrates #colorfulcommunity … See MoreSee Less
