In gallery conversations and hands-on artmaking activities, Arts & Minds opens a window to creativity and well-being for people with dementia and their caregivers. All programs are led by professional museum educators and teaching artists familiar with the needs of people with dementia and their caregivers.
Arts & Minds is a not-for-profit organization committed to improving the quality of life for people living with memory loss, Alzheimer’s disease, and other dementias through engagement with art. We partner with museums to provide meaningful art-centered activities that create positive emotional and cognitive experiences, enhance verbal and non- verbal communication, reduce isolation, and build community.
Our programs empower people with dementia, family members, professional caregivers, and educators to strengthen social, emotional, and spiritual bonds by engaging with art.
