Memories in the Making® is a fine arts program for people with Alzheimer’s. As part of the Memories in the Making program, patients with no art background can create art to regain the ability to communicate while boosting self-esteem and opening the channels of communication with loved ones.
The Program gives something back to patients, families, and the community that no other program has been able to duplicate. Patients benefit through the creation of art. Families benefit because communication is made possible, allowing them to develop a unique appreciation of their loved one suffering from Alzheimer’s.
The exhibition is presented by Alzheimer's Orange County and will be on display during library operating hours, September 6 through November 3.
Sponsored by the Newport Beach City Arts Commission.
