The arts have a profound impact on mental health and quality of life. Therefore, this project celebrated and promoted the arts among the older generation of RBKC in collaboration with Age UK K&C, by hosting a series of 12 tours and workshops of our recent street art exhibition Beyond The Streets for them. The sessions were specifically aimed at those with dementia as studies have shown that art therapy activities even help boost cognitive function in various areas of the brain and enhance communication, brain function and social interaction in people with dementia.
Here are some quotes from some of the participants:
“The course was enjoyable, fun, exciting, entertaining, and I would recommend it. The teacher is friendly, approachable, and welcoming.”
“The best exhibition ever in the Saatchi Gallery.”
“Awesome, encouraging, inclusive, more please.”
