Writers, photographers, artists, and poets live and create in Touchmark communities. The Let Your Spirit Soar program was developed to feature residents’ creativity.
In 2006, the Touchmark Foundation and Touchmark launched a new program. Residents living in Touchmark communities may submit pictures of original artwork (paintings, needlepoint, photography, pen and ink, etc.) for possible inclusion in a note card collection. Touchmark leaders will use the cards to extend personalized greetings to people living in Touchmark communities throughout the United States and in Canada. At year’s end, the cards were placed in a collection and are available for sale, with all proceeds benefiting the Touchmark Foundation.
