💚✨ Love for Artis – Day 04 in GREEN! ✨💚
Day 04 of Employee Appreciation Week at Artis Senior Living Potomac was filled with vibrant GREEN — symbolizing momentum, wellness, and the growth we inspire together.
Our staff, residents, families, and friends proudly wore green as we celebrated the strength and unity of our community. The atmosphere was refreshing, uplifting, and full of positive energy.
We were grateful to energize, reset, and relax during our special Wellness Day, hosted by our Director of Community Integration, Lheo Jose. Wellness massage therapy sponsored by Steve’s Relaxation & Foot Massage provided a calming experience for our hardworking team.
Our Green Social delighted everyone with Korean kimbap and bulgogi, bringing flavorful moments of connection around the table. 💚
We also joyfully celebrated Purim with a festive circus theme — learning about the history and meaning of the holiday while enjoying sweet hamantaschen, popcorn, and cotton candy. 🎪🍿 It was a beautiful blend of culture, education, and celebration.
This year, GREEN reminds us that growth happens when we care for ourselves and one another. Momentum builds when wellness is prioritized, and together, we continue cultivating a community rooted in purpose and positivity.
Celebrate with us as we honor the meaningful moments that keep our hearts, minds, and spirits growing strong. 💚✨

Throughout March, we’re exploring Play as Curiosity at Artis! 🔎
Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics – or STEM – programs help people on the dementia journey by organizing environmental input and engaging multiple senses simultaneously.
Join us later this month for our Power of Play signature event! 🧠 The Inventive Minds Wonder Workshop 🧠 is a multisensory, STEM-based program where we’ll explore light, shadow, movement, and simple inventions – encouraging curiosity and problem-solving, supporting fine-motor skills, and building confidence.
Talk to our Director of Life Enrichment for details!
