Arts can serve an important part in everyone’s life. As people age and their ability to independently engage in arts activities diminishes, they depend upon the people around them; their family friends and care professionals to bring these opportunities to them. It is especially valuable to those individuals with Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias to engage with others and these arts activities are the perfect communication form to make that connection.
