Every brushstroke counts. This June, in honor of Elder Abuse Awareness Month, we’re turning one of Amarillo’s most beloved roadside landmarks into a vivid statement of solidarity — and we want you to be part of it.
To help kick off the celebration, come out to Bug Ranch Friday, May 29th from 9:30 AM to noon, and help us paint the iconic cars purple. The cars will already have a purple base coat waiting for you — just bring your own paint and add your personal touch to this one-of-a-kind community canvas.
But it’s more than just a fun morning with a paintbrush. We’ll also have:
- A resource fair with information and services to help protect the elders in our community;
- Food trucks to keep you fueled while you create;
- A chance to connect with neighbors to care about making Amarillo a safer place for everyone.
Elder abuse affects millions of older adults every year, and awareness is one of the most powerful tools we have. This event is a chance to show up — literally in purple — and say it matters to us…
