Artisan Crafters & Fine Artists Make Fellowship Days a Success!

Melissa Kalicicki Rojas, Donor Engagement Coordinator

Across Landis Communities there are many individuals who share their unique talents to promote Fellowship Days and the Online Benefit Auction in support of the Caring Fund. Tom & Janet are two of those special individuals!

Tom and Janet both began creative pursuits at young ages. Tom began at the age of 12 and Janet was even younger. Both retired teachers, they continue to bless others and keep busy by pursuing creative, unique art.

“After we retired, we had more time to do things we wanted to do. We began doing art shows and sold basic items at first. Then people would request an item and we began doing more,” Janet shared.

“We enjoyed meeting and talking to people. I began selling shadow boxes with mounted flies and then a lady requested fly fishing earrings. Now I sell them too,” Tom said.

If handcrafting items, making new friends, and helping to raise money for the Caring Fund is something you would like to do, contact Janice Nikoloff, Advancement Events Coordinator, at (717) 381-3580. We all have something special to share with others.
