Art for Caregivers

For Caregivers of those Living with Dementia

Jun. 11, 2026 11:30 am - 1:00 pm
Level 2 Galleries

This program is part of a series running on Thursdays, May 7, 14, 21, 28 and June 4 on Zoom, and June 11 in-person at the Museum. Registration before the May 7 session is required, and includes all dates. 

The Jewish Museum invites caregivers of those living with Alzheimer’s Disease and related dementias to a program designed for connection, relaxation, and respite. Over six weeks, the group will delve into objects that weave together stories from Paul Klee: Other Possible Worlds and the Museum’s collection, and then create original works of art inspired by our discussions. This series will be facilitated by teaching artist Hollie Ecker.

This program is just for caregivers; if you are also interested in a joint program with someone living with dementia, please join us for JM Journeys.
