Alzheimer’s Awareness month with resident-created gallery exhibit11:55AM / Tuesday, October 27, 2009
PITTSFIELD, Mass. - In recognition of Alzheimer’s Awareness month, EPOCH Assisted Living at Melbourne will display watercolors created by memory care residents in its art gallery throughout the month of November.
EPOCH will host a reception to celebrate the exhibit opening on Tuesday, Nov. 10, at 6:30 p.m.
The exhibit will consist of artwork created by six residents from EPOCH’s Bridges neighborhood, a specialized memory care neighborhood within EPOCH.
As part of EPOCH’s Memories in the Making program, the participants meet once a week for an hour of painting. Facilitators lead them through a project that combines therapy and artistic expression.
The Alzheimer’s Association designed the Memories in the Making program to give people with memory loss and dementia an opportunity to express themselves through art even after communicating with others has become difficult.
All are welcome to attend the gallery opening. Light refreshments will be served. EPOCH’s gallery is open to the public weekdays from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.
For more information or to request a reservation for the opening reception call 413-499-1992. |
