SPARK!
Creative engagement programs for people with memory loss and their care partners
What is
SPARK!
SPARK! is located in museums, galleries, nature centers, and cultural venues across the United States and continues to expand into new communities. SPARK! programs are FREE for families to attend together. SPARK! programs welcome care partners to stay actively engaged in their communities while joining peers to experience art, culture, and nature in a comfortable environment with specially trained staff and volunteers. What does SPARK! stand for? SPARK! is not an acronym, it’s something that happens between care partners when engaged in a stimulating and engaging experience – SPARKing a moment together – living in the moment.
