Arts Minds

Arts Minds is a non-profit organization based in New York, New York. The organization employs 17 people and generates $5 million in annual revenue. Arts Minds provides high-quality visual art programs designed to improve the well-being of individuals living with Alzheimer's disease and other dementias. These programs are offered in museums, senior centers, and geriatric residences. Recognizing the challenges posed by the pandemic, Arts Minds successfully transitioned its programs online, empowering family members and professional caregivers to utilize their techniques outside of the museum setting. The organization's programs leverage art-viewing and art-making to engage cognition, emotion, and memory, fostering a deeper understanding of the human experience. Through shared aesthetic experiences, caregivers discover the ability of individuals with dementia to interact with intelligence and joy, encouraging rich communication and a person-centered approach to care.
