It started as a volunteer project by two University of Southern Indiana students who were studying occupational therapy. They were looking to do a hands-on project and thought this might be an opportunity to both give back and practice what they have learned in fine motor skills. Every Tuesday at 4 p.m. Chelsea and Hana come to PEACE Zone and work with members to create a variety of beaded earrings and bracelets. They have also made a few necklaces. The funding to support the purchase of the beads and accessories came from grant funding. Chelsea stated, “I found out about the PEACE Zone through Beth Barchet (a board member) and we were looking to do a service project in the community. I have enjoyed working with the members. There are very creative members here.” time to view the pieces. They have been asking $5 for earrings and bracelets. They would make great Christmas gifts. Other items may be available to purchase too. Members have also been busy painting wooden birdhouses and decoupaging vases. The jewelry and art pieces are for sale with profits going to the PEACE Zone. If you have any old necklaces or beads that you would be willing to donate please contact us. Eventually it would be nice to set up an online site for selling homemade items, such as Etsy.
