Gnomes are popping up everywhere! As a community service project, AARP Volunteers in Prescott & Prescott Valley AZ handcrafted 30 gnomes thru a process that included cutting, gluing and decorating with style! The gnomes were then donated to the residents at two Assisted Living Communities in Prescott and one in Tucson. The very cute gnomes were well received by the residential communities and are now sitting atop tables in lobby and recreational areas! AARP AZ is grateful to have been able to do this project and to find new homes for cute gnomes!
