The Helping Hands Art/Opening Minds Through Art Program is a collaboration between JFS Nashville and Opening Minds Through Art (OMA), a national evidence-based art program. OMA’s mission is to build bridges across age and cognitive barriers through art through matching a trained art facilitator with someone living with dementia.
In offering music and art options, JFS recognizes the uniqueness of each situation and strives to offer opportunities for meaningful engagement and positive interaction. Our providers travel to homes, assisted living communities or nursing homes.
Art created by our participants will be displayed in the Sig Held Gallery at the Gordon JCC for the entire month of September 2024 with a reception exhibiting their work on September 11, 2024 from 6:00-8:00 PM
