Arts for Life Programs

Sentimental Journey Singers is a community chorus for people with early to mid-stage memory loss, their care partners and volunteer singers. Participants learn vocal techniques and three-part harmony, while singing familiar songs and new pieces in a social group setting under the leadership of a professional conductor.

Melody Makers is designed for individuals with mid- to moderate-stage cognitive change. During their rehearsals, they will enjoy sing-alongs with music and movement games. (online registration is not required. Email info@encorecreativity.org for more information)

With the generous support of our sponsors, Arts for Life programs remain tuition free for all registrants.
