Mindful Art (art and dementia)

These intimate gatherings are designed especially for those who are living with dementia and provide a normalised experience within a gallery setting. 

Carers, and family members who care for someone who is living with dementia, are invited to join our Mindful Art sessions (art and dementia program) at the Gallery.

During a 2hr visit, Gallery staff and trained volunteers use artworks as prompts to stimulate conversation. This is followed by a thoughtfully designed hands-on art-making activity and light refreshment.

Free, bookings are essential as places are limited to small groups of six people (plus carers).

Please note that the Gallery is climate controlled and quite cool. It is recommended for attendees to dress warmly for comfort when attending this program.
