Residents are encouraged to "picture it" and either write a short, humorous story inspired by a Golden Girls-esque scenario or sketch a scene from the show. Provide various art supplies and paper. This activity stimulates imagination, provides a creative outlet, and can spark delightful conversations and laughter, perhaps even leading to ideas for photo booth poses. Can be recorded and posted for social media, play a few "picture it" moments from the sitcom and provide links.
