Connections

This three-day program for individuals with early stage dementia and their care partners, will involve a
variety of creative activities in a relaxed setting. Participants will explore the galleries through interactive exercises and puzzles, experiment with different materials to create individual and group projects, and discover works of art through music, dance, literature, storytelling and role play. Light refreshments will be served.

Space is limited and advance registration is required. The same program is offered twice a semester; participants may choose either Series A, which is offered on three consecutive Wednesdays, or Series B, which is offered on three consecutive Fridays. To register and for information about visiting the Meadows Museum with individuals with special needs, please contact Carmen Smith at 214.768.4677.
