We are very excited about our programs this month that revolve
around the many facets of music. This year we will be introducing the
Music and Memory Program into our Wellspring community here at Naples. We
have three events scheduled in the upcoming months and invite you to join us!
January 21st at 3:30 PM: MUSIC THE MAGIC HEALER Presentation
by music therapist, Karla Mramor, will reveal how music can help those with
dementia. She will show how different types of music can soothe, stimulate or
spark a memory. She will share her insights for using Music and Memory to
achieve this goal.
January 22nd at 6:30 PM: ALIVE INSIDE SCREENING
An inspirational and emotional story left the audience humming, clapping and
cheering at the 2014 Sundance Film Festival, where it won the Audience Award.
The film dramatically portrays the power of music and memory. Refreshments will
be served following the screening along with discussion on how music impacts
each of us daily, especially those who live with dementia. See the trailer.
January 29th at 5:30 PM: VIRTUAL DEMENTIA TOUR AND
CREATE YOUR PLAYLIST EVENT The Virtual Dementia Tour is an interactive,
experiential journey into the realities of dementia. It allows you to “walk in the
shoes” of your loved one, enabling you to better understand their needs and
behaviors. End this journey by starting your own personalized music playlist!
