Individuals living with Alzheimer’s or other forms of dementia, their families and care partners are invited to join Songwriting Works’ professional songwriters in a 2-day workshop at Edmonds Senior Center.
Using creative conversation, storytelling, improvisation and life review, participants will create songs that reflect community voices, realities and diversity. Family members often comment that songwriting with their loved ones becomes a new kind of respite for themselves: they enjoy the uplifting spontaneity of the experience and gain new insights and ways to communicate through play and music.
This program is presented as part of ECA’s new Dementia-Inclusive Series.
To register, call the ECA Box Office at 425.275.9595.
