Dementia and the Arts – Who Wants to Showcase Their Artwork?

WHO CAN JOIN US?

Raising Awareness of Abilities Through the Beauty of the Arts

Dementia and the Arts™ Educational Panel was formed to lift the voices of people living with dementia while raising awareness of their abilities. We discuss the when’s and why’s of how they got involved with art, along with what they get out of creating it, and other people’s reactions to it. Individuals share the techniques they use, how they adapt as the disease progresses, and how their emotions are expressed through their work.

Dementia and the Arts knows no boundaries and feels it’s important to be inclusive of all people no matter what form of dementia they are living with. We work hard to accommodate time zone differences around the world so we don’t exclude people due to their location.

Empowering Individuals Where All Can Participate

We gather as a group on a quarterly basis, and for those who can’t make a group session, we try hard to coordinate a private segment that can be edited into the program. We love partnering with all organizations that support those living with dementia by encouraging and empowering them to get creative.

All levels of artwork and all forms of art are welcome. Here is a brief list of types of art: painting, coloring, woodworking, photography, dance, song, music, poetry… and more.
