1-2 hours / weekly
Ongoing
We are looking for volunteers to come in and spend time with our residents while performing needlecraft activities. We have various clubs available for people in the Sherwood Park community to come and join, where they can socialize with our residents and work on their projects. We are hoping for volunteers that can help our Rec team carry out needlecraft activity sessions and enjoy visiting with our residents. We would love to hear about your ideas for new knitting, macrame or crocheting projects etc..., as we are always looking to grow residents' experiences at Aster Gardens.

There are some set dates and times that we have for Needlecraft clubs, such as;
Knitting Club Mondays at 3 pm -4 pm
Why should you volunteer for this opportunity?
Keep your hands and mind active with needle crafting. Take this opportunity to learn a new skill, perfect your abilities, or teach others the wisdom you have in the craft. Visit, create and share your passion for knitting, macrame or crocheting with us at Aster Gardens. 

We also donate some of our projects to charities around the Strathcona County such as Family First Society and Blankets for Canada.
