Two favorite A.G. Rhodes programs came together this week in the best way possible!

As part of Generation Connect, teens and elders teamed up for a LEGO Serious Play activity and worked side by side to build a model of A.G. Rhodes Atlanta, complete with resident rooms, gardens, and spaces that make our community feel like home. The project sparked creativity, storytelling, teamwork, and plenty of laughter along the way.

When generations collaborate, amazing things happen. Through hands-on experiences like this, our elders share wisdom, young people bring fresh perspectives, and everyone walks away with meaningful new connections. That's what Generation Connect is all about!
