 Virtual URL
Date and Time: 07/22/2026 1:00 PM
Brief Description of Event: Creativity plays a vital role in healthy aging, supporting emotional well‑being, cognitive resilience, and social connection across the lifespan- including for those living with dementia-related conditions. This session explores how ARTZ Philadelphia’s community-based, arts‑engagement programs help people tap into their innate creativity to spark communication, expression, and meaningful relationships. 

Drawing on over a decade of ARTZ Philadelphia’s innovative and inclusive arts experiences, the webinar will highlight how creative engagement -whether in museums, community spaces, or at home- cultivates moments of joy, dignity, and shared humanity. Through real stories, evidence-informed insights, and practical examples, attendees will discover how creativity supports identity, reduces isolation, and strengthens personhood, benefiting not only people with dementia but all older adults on their journey of aging well. 

Key Takeaways: 
-Creativity and art-based engagement support communication, emotional expression, and connection for people living with Lewy body dementia. 
-Simple, accessible creative practices can be integrated into daily life to spark joy, reduce isolation, and strengthen identity. 
-Community-driven arts programs foster dignity, belonging, and shared humanity for individuals with dementia and their care partners.
