When We Put People at the Centre, We Do Better Work: An Alzheimer’s Awareness Month Reflection

Laurie Kilgour-Walsh

- January 22, 2025

January is Alzheimer’s Awareness Month in Canada.  The aim of the month is to raise awareness and challenge stigma surrounding Alzheimer’s and dementia. As our communities age, we see the impact of dementia and the stigma that surrounds it becoming ever more widespread in Canada.

The Art Gallery of Hamilton has been presenting specialized programs for people living with dementia and their families for many years, and through this work, we have connected with many wonderful participants and their families.

From 8-track to iMac: Digitizing Analog Media

SJ Rintjema

- September 19, 2023
