Arts for Connection

Workshop

This project is an artiste-led, collaborative creative programme bringing visual arts, storytelling, poetry, singing and live music into a hospital setting for residents living with dementia. Working collaboratively, the project will deliver gentle, 1-hour participatory sessions designed to support wellbeing, connection, and self-expression. To ensure that all activity is dementia-friendly, flexible, and responsive to participants needs.

Meaningful participation & engagement with the residents where the creative process is central & as important as the quality of any end product. Everyone can experience the magic of poetry, art, song & music. Creativity will be used as a cultural and human experience, affirming participants dignity, identity, and voice.
