LEWISTON – SeniorsPlus is offering Opening Minds through Art, a new program that strives to bring joy, art and pride to people living with dementia and Alzheimer’s.
OMA engages students with dementia in creating free-wheeling art. OMA classes will be on Fridays, Feb. 3 through March 10 at the Education Center of SeniorsPlus, t 8 Falcon Road.
During the six-week program, people with dementia (the “artists”) are paired one-on-one with volunteers who help them create art using imagination instead of memory. SeniorsPlus seeks students for the program, as well as volunteers to work one-on-one with participants in these art classes. No art background required. T
o volunteer, or to enroll a loved one as an artist, contact SeniorsPlus, at 207-795-4010, edcenter@seniorsplus.org.
