John Clark is a Community Day Program Participant, and a former English professor at the University of Saskatchewan. A jazz enthusiast, who also enjoys classical music, John is a cultured man, and although he lives alone and is somewhat isolated as a result, he enjoys being part of the Sherbrooke community. John is a published author and has written several books of poetry. He brings to Sherbrooke a wealth of knowledge and interests that enhances our world.

At Sherbrooke, John has the opportunity to pursue a new creative endeavour by spending quality time in the Art Studio. The studio provides a nurturing, supportive environment, and offers more than a place to paint and draw, but also gives real opportunities for creative expression. Avery, the artist-in-residence, provides a vital link for John to re-engage in the life of the community and to make new friends. John’s knowledge and experience makes him a valuable asset and a respected member of the community.
