The “ARTZ” program (Artists for Alzheimer’s) initiated by Dr. John Zeisel and Sean Caulfield is a groundbreaking project that uses art to provide mental health support for seniors, particularly those suffering with dementia. Comprising visiting galleries, painting classes, and being exposed to various art mediums, it offers a therapeutic and mindful approach to dealing with the cognitive disorders associated with old age. The art-centric interaction helps ignite the creative spark within the participants, thereby stimulating their mental health and the creation of joyful, positive experiences.

My Take on the Project:
This remarkable initiative brilliantly utilizes art for therapeutic purposes, offering seniors much-needed mental support.
