DELIVERING CREATIVITY AND Community TO YOUR DOORSTEP
D.I.T. Art Kits
The Do-It-Together Art Community in a Box
Get creative without leaving home! Mather’s mission is to support Ways to Age Well℠ for all older adults–both inside and outside a Mather residence. Every memory and moment is better with a bit of color, so we’re cultivating a unique creative community for those 55 and better.
Explore the joy of artmaking by creating six unique projects, including:
- mosaic painted coasters
- ombre dyed macrame wall hangings
- clay magnets
- punched clay candle holders
- and more!
Every participant receives a complimentary Art Kit in the mail with all the materials and step-by-step instructions you need to get crafting.
To register for your D.I.T. Kit by phone, please call (888) 600.2560.
These kits are available only to Illinois residents, age 55+. If you’re located outside of Illinois, check out our free virtual programs available nationwide! Browse and register here: https://www.mather.com/programs/virtual-programs
JOIN OUR WAITLIST
Our April D.I.T. Art Kit is currently full and registration has closed. To join the waitlist for our August kit, please fill out the form below.
NOTE: Our August kit is an identical repeat of the February and April kits. Please register only if you have NOT previously participated in these kits. Our goal is to ensure we serve as many older adults as possible. We will notify you via email when a new kit is available for registration.
Anyone in Illinois age 55 and better is welcome!
