Art and Dementia Online

Once per month people living with Dementia and their care partners are invited to engage through discussion and art making via online video conferencing. Works of art from the Gallery’s collection inspire social interaction and creativity. This online program extends opportunities for people with Dementia who are unable to visit the Gallery. A list of simple art making materials will be advised on registration and all individuals will be supported to participate.
