SPARK!
SPARK! is a free monthly engagement art program for adults living with memory loss and their care partners. Each one-hour program is led by specially trained museum educators who cultivate interactive visual art experiences.
Attending a SPARK! program provides an opportunity to be together in the moment. The programs are not reminiscent, nor do they rely on recalling memories, but rather focus on observations, conversations, and creative experiences.
