From the Executive Director:
Donna Murray-Tiedge, MFA, Ph.D.
Hello Warehouse Community members,
As the color begins to pop in our beloved Northwoods, September finds us sauntering into some exciting new Fall programming. Consider dropping into one of our new Free Family Arts Sundays for family-friendly art-making opportunities with our new UM intern, Lauren Ritzer. Join Lauren from 1-3 on Sundays. Homeschoolers, our Fall session highlights the reflective practice of creating art. Leah Groeling Fann, a recent graduate in art therapy and art education, joins Warehouse veteran Johanna Buwalda to teach our growing homeschoolers. Stay well, stay safe, and we hope to see you soon!
Dr. Donna

Arts & Aging
Story of the month!
Please enjoy the story and illustration below, “Job Well Done”, written and illustrated by TimeSlips participants in our Arts and Aging program.
Thank you to our Arts and Aging sponsor, Northwoods United Way.
Job Well Done
There is a young man on a bicycle and he is riding on a brick path. There is a lot of grass and a parked white car. He has a backpack and listens to the radio. His name is Taylor and he is on his way to college. He has a lot of books in is bag. He studies biology. Taylor is so smart! He rides by the white car and he goes off to school. He goes to Marquette University. It’s a beautiful fall day. It’s too nice to go to school. Taylor decides to play hooky and go to the Brookfield zoo in Milwaukee. He has to go on the freeway to get there and that is against the law. He gets picked up by the long arm of the law. They tell him to go on the grass. It’s very hard to bike on the grass so Taylor decides to walk.
It takes a long time to get there and the zoo is closed. There is a quarantine for the apes! One is real sick (this is a perfect recipe for a zombie outbreak). Taylor wishes so much that he had gone to school! But it’s a good thing he studies biology. Taylor talks to the zookeeper and helps make the ape well.
Taylor finishes school and gets a job at the zoo. Good thing he studies biology. This job is right up his alley. He never missed school again. He is happy with the job so it worked out great!
