In the Moment is a program designed to creatively engage those living with Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of memory loss and their care partners. We are happy to offer In the Moment both in person and virtually through Zoom.
Guided Tours
Participants view selections from the museum’s collection of art and historical objects, as well as exciting objects on view in our seasonal exhibits, and are guided by museum educators in conversation, learning, and fun.
Art-Making Workshops
Hands-on opportunities for creative expression with all needed art materials provided by the museum and delivered to your door! In this program, you interact with museum educators over zoom, where they guide you through the art-making process.
For groups in either day programs or live-in facilities, these sessions are scheduled at a day and time convenient for the group. For individuals and care partners, we offer Afternoons@LIM. Sessions are held one to two times a month. See the flyer below to find this month’s offering.
