In the Moment

Programs designed to creatively engage those living with Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of memory loss and their care partners.

The Long Island Museum is proud to offer In the Moment to our community.

Thanks to generous funding, these programs are free for individuals living at home, as well as those in Day and Live-In Care Communities. 

All In the Moment programs are underwritten by a generous anonymous gift.
