In the framework of settling the socialization challenge for elderly citizens, we arrange stitchcraft master classes for elderly people and people which are under care of social institutions. In addition to art therapy courses at master classes, elderly people make things which we then hand over to those in need of help. Hand-made articles are sent to prematurely born infants, elderly people, homeless people. Thanks to this, participants of master classes feel that they are needed and help themselves.
