Art's the Spark

Select Saturdays, 10:30am -12:00pm 

Through interactive tours of the Museum's exhibitions, Art's the Spark gives those living with memory impairment, or any other neurological impairment, such as early-stage Alzheimer's disease or Parkinson's disease, and their healthy caregivers a fun experience, an expressive outlet and an opportunity for adult discussions, 

It provides a safe environment for members of the community who may have lost their memory but not their imagination and a forum for dialogue through looking at and making art. OM0A professional educators lead small group tours in the Museum's galleries during non-public hours, offering an experience designed to use fine art as a catalyst for discussion and reminiscing. After the tour, healthy caregivers enjoy social time with other caregivers with coffee and conversation while their loved ones engage in a studio art activity. The program strives to provide a rich and satisfying experience for all participants. 

FREE, pre-registration is required. Please call 407.896.4231 ext. 262 or
