SPARK!

The SPARK! program offers engaging experiences for people with early- to mid-stage memory loss and a friend, family member, or caregiver with whom to share it. Monthly sessions may include cooking, art-making, or a gallery tour, or even attending world-class performances. The atmosphere is welcoming and friendly, and a short social time is part of each of these programs.
