Palette – Creative Engagement for Seniors

 

Studies show seniors reap great benefits from engaging in different art forms and improves quality of life through arts participation:

Aids in relaxation, anxiety, and depression
Give feelings of control
Improve communication and socialization
Encourage humor and playfulness
Improve cognition
Offer sensory stimulation
Foster a strong sense of identity
Bolster self – esteem
Nurture faith
Reduce boredom

The ultimate goal of Palette is to utilize the arts to positively impact the quality of life for each program participant.

Palette was launched as a pilot program in 2018 with a grant from the IJ Burich Foundation.
