“Artful Moments” è nato da un semplice gesto: osservare e discutere di opere d’arte con persone affette da demenza. In quel momento, abbiamo assistito a uno spostamento dell’attenzione verso le esperienze condivise e la connessione. In Artful Moments: nel programma Community Connections, ci concentriamo sulla lingua preferita dai partecipanti per guidare le conversazioni e le attività pratiche, con supporto in inglese se necessario.
I partecipanti sono incoraggiati a coinvolgere un amico o un familiare nel programma, in modo che tutti possano condividere questa esperienza insieme. I familiari e gli amici sono incoraggiati a partecipare alle discussioni e alle attività pratiche insieme ai partecipanti. Questo programma è pensato per entrambi.
Artful Moments : Community Connections

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 Italian, 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.
