Lindsey Helmbrecht ’23 learned of Bob Ross by hearing stories from her grandfather and her aunt, who painted along to his television show whenever it aired.
“It was a way for them to bond and they still talk about it to this day. Bob Ross and his painting show was something for them to cherish together,” she said. Helmbrecht now carries on this legacy as president of the Healing Arts Club, continuing the tradition of the Bob Ross Paint-Along night as a club-favorite activity.
