About the Event
Join us Monday April 24th at 1:00 pm (ET) for our Dementia Unplugged: Artful Insights program. After you register, we will send you the Zoom link and instructions.
This month we will be traveling to Baltimore, Maryland to visit to the American Visionary Art Museum. The American Visionary Art Museum is a congressionally-designated national museum and education center. The walls are a space for self-taught and intuitive artistry, and specialize in the preservation and display of outsider artwork. Many of the artists, who are called “visionaries”, did not receive any formal training. The artists have taught themselves how to create art through unconventional materials and methods after experiencing hardships in their lives.
Artful Insights is a monthly program brought to you as part of the Dementia Society’s series of online offerings for people living with dementia and their care partners, “Dementia Unplugged,” and hosted by ARTZ Philadelphia.
We invite you to join us each month for a warm, welcoming and light-hearted series of conversations around visual works of art from museums across the United States.
