Seniors Hobby Fair highlights passions, stories, talent

KNOXVILLE — A Hobby Fair Friday, Jan. 23, at Morning Pointe of Knoxville celebrated creativity and connection as residents, associates, families and community partners shared the hobbies that shape them. “Our Hobby Fair was such a meaningful reminder of how much life experience, creativity and passion our residents carry with them,” life enrichment director Kari Christopher said. “Seeing them share their hobbies and the stories behind them with family and community members was incredibly uplifting.” The event showcased interests, such as model trains, antiques, fine art, textiles, woodworking and baked goods. Each table highlighted a personal story. Among the standout displays was Elizabeth Morris’ antique postcard collection, with pieces dating back to the 1920s. Also, Christopher said Bill Lee shared his extensive collection of model trains and buildings, all crafted by hand. He reflected on how his basement at home once housed a fully operational train layout with tracks weaving through detailed structures. Art was a central highlight throughout the room. Guests admired Marie Meredith’s watercolor and oil paintings, noting the remarkable detail in each piece. Another memorable moment came when Betty Brannum shared her love of clogging, giving attendees a joyful glimpse into a hobby rooted in rhythm and tradition.
