Artful Moments (Momentos Artísticos): Vínculos Comunitários

Um programa sobre arte para pessoas com alterações de memória ou demência ministrado em português.

Conversas criativas e atividades práticas inspiradas no Museu de Arte de Hamilton, concebidas para promover a socialização e o bem-estar.

Venha por si só ou com uma pessoa próxima como acompanhante. Não é necessário ter experiência em arte.

Os programas serão ministrados em português, com apoio em inglês conforme necessário.

A inspiração para o Artful Moments veio do simples ato de observar e conversar sobre arte com pessoas a viver com demência. Naquele momento, vimos o foco passar para as experiências partilhadas e a interação. No Artful Moments: Community Connections (Momentos Artísticos: Vínculos Comunitários), priorizamos o idioma de preferência dos participantes para orientar as conversas e atividades práticas, com apoio em inglês conforme necessário.

Os participantes são incentivados a trazer uma pessoa próxima — amiga ou familiar — para os acompanhar no programa, de modo a que todos possam viver esta experiência em conjunto. Os acompanhantes são incentivados a participar de conversas e atividades práticas juntamente com os participantes. Este programa é para ambos.

 

Artful Moments : Community Connections

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

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.
