The Painting Workshop is an extension program of the Third Age University Center of the Federal University of Rio Grande (NUTI/FURG) which takes place at a Long Term Care Institution for the Aged. The objective of this paper is to report the experience of academics of the Psychology Course in the implementation of this project with elder persons that live in these institutions. Drawings and painting supplies were provided in weekly meetings. The experience created manifold possibilities for the development of social interactions among the elderly participants.
