Recently a crew from The Horticultural Society of New York came to the center to clean up our little garden area and build some new raised beds for our summer gardening project. On June 10 Horticultural Society members will return on a regular schedule (weather permitting) to guide our members in planting flowers and caring for the garden. We are so grateful for this new partnership!

Last week Elizabeth from the American Folk Art Museum led a program discussing a couple pieces of art from the Museum. The second one, by artist Clementine Hunter, has a small image of herself in the middle. Elizabeth took photos of each member so that they could create their own painting in a similar style. The whole program inspired lots of discussion and inspired artworks.

Memory Generation is a new interactive, experiential theater work that blends theatrical narrative, creative participation, and communal exchange in a memory café environment—creative social spaces designed specifically for people living with dementia, and their friends and families, that focus on creative experiences, not diagnosis.
Memory Generation is designed as an inviting space that is welcoming to all, no matter what their relationship to memory loss may be.
