Memories in the Making
®
A fine arts program for people with dementia
Memories in the Making®, introduced in 1988, is a signature art program of the Alzheimer's Association Orange County Chapter. It is a unique program allowing persons with Alzheimer's disease or other dementia to express themselves through art.
The benefits of MIM can be that it:
The loss of language doesn't mean the loss of the desire to express oneself. One doesn't cease to exist just because one can no longer remember the past few decades of his or her life. Through the creative process of painting, these individuals speak to us, offering us the essence of themselves. In viewing the art of the families, the caregivers and the public are often touched by the tangible evidence of what remains of the individual even after the disease has robbed them of so much.
