Artful Moments (Moments artistiques): Liens communautaires

Un programme axé sur les arts, offert en français aux personnes vivant des changements sur le plan de la mémoire ou avec un trouble neurocognitif.

Des conversations créatives et des activités pratiques inspirées par l’Art Gallery of Hamilton, conçues pour favoriser les liens sociaux et le bien-être.

Venez seul ou seule, ou avec un membre de votre famille, un ami ou une amie. Aucune expérience préalable en art n’est requise.

Les programmes seront offerts en français, avec du soutien en anglais au besoin.

Artful Moments (Moments artistiques) est né d’un geste tout simple : regarder des œuvres d’art et en discuter avec des personnes vivant avec un trouble neurocognitif. À ce moment-là, nous avons vu l’attention se tourner vers les expériences partagées et les liens sociaux.  Dans Moments artistiques : Liens communautaires, nous privilégions la langue de préférence des personnes participantes pour guider les conversations et les activités pratiques, avec un soutien en anglais au besoin.

Les personnes participantes sont invitées à prendre part au programme avec un ami, une amie ou un membre de leur famille, afin de profiter pleinement de cette expérience ensemble. Les membres de la famille et les amis et amies sont invités à participer aux discussions et aux activités pratiques aux côtés des personnes participantes. Ce programme est conçu pour être vécu ensemble.

Artful Moments : Community Connections

An arts-based program for people with memory changes or dementia, delivered in French.

Creative conversations and hands-on activities inspired by the Art Gallery of Hamilton, designed to build social connection and wellbeing.

Come on your own or with a family member or friend. No previous art experience needed.

Programs will be delivered in French, with English support as needed.

Artful Moments was inspired by a simple act of looking at and discussing art with people living with dementia. In that moment, we saw a shift of focus to shared experiences, and connection.  In Artful Moments: Community Connections, we focus on participants’ preferred language to guide conversations and hands-on activities, with English support as needed.

Participants are encouraged to include a friend or family-member to share in the program, where everyone shares this experience together. Family and friends are encouraged to participate in discussions and hands-on activities along side participants. This program is for both of you.
