Art for Alzheimer’s

Houston seniors at Belmont Village Senior Living hosted an art show and auction that raised funds to benefit the Alzheimer’s Association. Patricia Will and Jan Kaiser (pictured, from left) organized the event for residents, guests, and members of the community. The art pieces up for sale were created by residents of Belmont Village. Residents have enjoyed finding their inner Picasso in art classes that began before the pandemic and have recently resumed due to high demand. The senior artists have been honing their skills during weekly watercolor classes led by a fellow resident and artist. In addition to enjoying creativity and social interaction, participating in the arts encourages healthy aging by strengthening cognitive function and memory.
