The Malibu Senior Center will offer “Memories in the Making: Crunch and Create,” on Monday, November 14, from 11:00 AM to 12:30 PM. This month’s class will provide a free lunch for those that RSVP! Enjoy a crunchy, healthy and delicious lunch as you create your own personal masterpiece.
Memories in the Making is one of the Alzheimer’s Association, California Southland Chapter’s signature programs. It is a unique fine arts program for people with Alzheimer’s disease or other dementias that offers a creative and non-verbal way of communicating and capturing precious movements through art.
More than a traditional arts and crafts class or hobby activity, Memories in the Making stimulates the brain, enhances connections with families, professional caregivers, as well as others, preserves distant memories or captures the “spirit of the moment,” opens up communication about self-perceptions and the world and validates and focuses on what remains rather than what’s lost. This program is free and is open to anyone that wants to participate, not only those with dementia.
This free program will be facilitated by Denise Gieser and held in the Malibu Senior Center. For more information or to RSVP, call the Malibu Senior Center at (310) 456-2489 ext. 357.
