Arts and Minds

Founded in 2009 to improve the quality of life for people with dementia and act as a respite for their caregivers, Arts offers educational and active programs in a handful of major NYC museums. Programs help focus attention, encourage self-expression and counteract isolation. Our grant will help increase the professional development of visiting artists, pay an administrative assistant and help fund a new Spanish language program.

Our grant gave Arts and Minds the chance to develop more robust partnerships, to find ways to make the organization sustainable, and to build the capacity to serve more people with Alzheimer's disease & other dementias.
