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 Williamstown.
We have three events scheduled in the upcoming months and invite you to join
us!
January 22nd at 2:00 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.
February 5th at 4:00 PM: MUSIC THE MAGIC HEALER Join
us to hear Deborah Scott, Dynamic Dementia Professional, Certified Geriatric
Case Manager, discuss 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.
February 19th at 2:00 PM: MUSIC AND MEMORY OPEN
HOUSE Celebrate the power of music with the family and staff of Wellspring
Memory Care at Juniper Village Williamstown! During this session we will
be creating our own playlists, reminiscing our favorite moments in musical
history, while enjoying some hors d’oeuvres. Feel free to drop off a used
iPod or an ITunes gift card to get the Music and Memory Program up and moving
for our residents!
If you are unable to make any of our upcoming events, or have
questions about Music and Memory, please contact our Connections Director
