Campus for Creative Aging: Memory Café
2028-12-14 10:00 - 11:00 (America/New_York)
Campus for Creative Aging: Memory Café
Second Thursday of the month | 10am – 11am | Community Room | Adults 18+
The Campus for Creative Aging’s Memory Cafés offer those with dementia and their caregivers the space to engage in art, enjoy games and puzzles, and learn about interesting topics in a safe and welcoming environment. Come and gather for snacks and socialization with a community of individuals in similar circumstances.
Caregivers join their care recipient at each café, and together they experience a haven for nonjudgmental fun. Memory Cafes are not a place of respite. They are a space for passions, creativity, and kindness, supporting every café participant with hospitality and entertainment without the social stigma often associated with cognitive changes.
While registration is not mandatory, it will help us notify attendees if there is a change or cancellation due to weather or illness. Questions? Call Jess at 269-932-7865. https://areaagencyonaging.org/memory-cafes/
