We brought a little sunshine to the studio! ☀️🌴

Our residents picked up their paintbrushes and created their very own sunset scenes, filled with beautiful skies, ocean waves, and peaceful shorelines during this month’s sip & paint class!

Brushes were busy, smiles were plenty, and our “shore” thing is… everyone had a great time! 😎

Join us onboard! Call us at (703)256-2525 for a tour today! 🌊

Breakfast, team building, and mystery Amazon packages! 📦☕😂

Our Renaissance department heads had some fun this week with the Unclaimed Amazon Package Game. Here’s a highlight of some of the most exciting finds — and how fitting that Nora, our Dining Director, got the salt and pepper shakers!

We work hard together, so it’s nice to make time to laugh together, too! ❤️

Nothing beats a good cup of coffee, especially when you get to enjoy it with great company☕️
