Memories in the Making

At Juniper Village at Aurora, we encourage our residents for an active body, an engaged mind, and a fulfilled spirit through specially designed activities.

Memories in the Making (MIM) is an art program for individuals with Alzheimer’s disease or related dementias that brings comfort and joy through the process of creating watercolors. Most have no prior art experience. The painting process provides an opportunity to engage socially and reminisce about meaningful life moments, individuals or personal interests. The program also offers an emotionally safe environment with positive messages. It is designed to be fun but also serves as a communication tool for families and professional caregivers to learn more about the person with dementia. Interested in learning more? Please call 303-341-6335.
