National Gorgeous Grandma Day
-- Gorgeous Grandma Day was founded in 1984 by Alice Solomon, a radio host. After she graduated at the age of 50 from Wellesley College, she felt society viewed women her age and older as senior citizens who were no longer useful or relevant. Today we recognize the beauty of older women, whether they are actual grandmothers or not, and encourages them to embrace their age and show their beauty to the world. Modern grandmas are much more hip than their past counterparts and make up a sizeable portion of the salon and spa demographic. Today is the day to tell your Grandma just how gorgeous she really is!
Read: Grandmas Are Gorgeous!
-- Inspired by loving memories and teachings from grandmothers. Reflecting on positive childhood experiences allows the application of knowledge to help us in our future. Special snacks, tender moments, traditions, and encouragement are heart-warming, shared, and illustrated in vivid colors. Readers encouraged to write stories about their grandma and art, using collage as a medium is demonstrated and encouraged. When we honor our loved ones through stories, they remain close to our hearts.
Grandma
-- Feisty, unapologetic and candid, GRANDMA navigates the intricacies of relationships between three generations of women. A teenager facing an unplanned pregnancy seeks help from her acerbic grandmother, a woman who is long estranged from her daughter.
