Artistic Expression at Noble Horizons: A Community Tapestry of Creativity

For over fifty years, Noble Horizons’ residents have shown us that the secret to a vibrant, fulfilling life isn't found in the mere passage of time but in the rich tapestry of experiences we weave along the way. With its boundless capacity for expression, art stands at the heart of this tapestry. For many of our residents, it is more than a pastime; it's a key to unlocking joy, igniting creativity, and fostering connections within Noble and our surrounding community.  It’s magical!

 At Noble, we cherish the transformative power art offers and host regular exhibitions and collaborative programs that showcase the immense talents of our residents and welcome contributions from artists in the surrounding community. This unique blend of perspectives creates a rich mix of creativity, celebrating life’s beauty through every brushstroke and sculpture while offering an incredible therapeutic element to everyone involved.

Why is art so pivotal for our seniors?

It's simple, really. Art is therapeutic!

Studies show that art uniquely boosts self-esteem, enhances cognitive functions, and provides a deeply personal means of expression. For our aging population, these benefits are not just nice but essential. Engaging in art keeps the mind sharp, battling the encroach of cognitive decline, and offers a therapeutic outlet for emotions that enhance mental health. Moreover, it cultivates a sense of achievement and identity, vital for maintaining self-esteem as one navigates the later stages of life. For our residents at Noble, it’s a way to connect with friends and family and have fun – the psychological and health benefits happen naturally.

Our art programs showcase this philosophy in action. Our programs and exhibitions are not just for our residents but are open to the entire community for a reason. Noble was founded on a community concept for senior living.  This inclusive approach enriches what we call “Noble Living,” bringing fresh perspectives and fostering a broader sense of community and understanding between generations.  Our goal is to discourage isolation and encourage collaboration for those who call Noble home.  We consider our campus an extension to the tri-state art community – just walk through our gorgeous campus and admire our sculpture gardens.

For families considering their next home for aging parents and loved ones, choosing a community that values art, you're choosing a place where your loved ones can continue to grow, express themselves, and connect with others. You're ensuring that their golden years are not just days on a calendar but are truly LIVED, painted with all the colors of their rich, storied lives.

In essence, Noble Horizons isn't just a senior living community; it's a vibrant canvas where every stroke, color, and texture represents a day, a memory, and a laugh shared. It's a place where art isn't just made; it's lived, offering our residents and extended community the chance to keep creating, exploring, and enjoying life in all its splendor. So, let's keep painting, sculpting, and storytelling, for in these acts of creation, we find the true art of “Noble Living”.
