Meet Me | The MoMA Alzheimer's Project: Making Art Accessible to People with Dementia
The MoMA Alzheimer's Project is the nationwide expansion of MoMA's art and dementia programs, including Meet Me at MoMA, the Museum's outreach program for individuals living with Alzheimer's disease and their caregivers. Funded by a major grant from MetLife Foundation, the project broadens the reach of these programs through the development of resources that can be used by museums, assisted-living facilities, and other community organizations serving people with dementia and their caregivers.
The site includes resources for these audiences, as well as audio from the participants produced in conjunction with Storycorps. Modules and guides are available in English and Spanish, and the site will evolve to include additional resources and services. A publication was created for the program and numerous workshops have been held internationally to share the research results and help other museums and institutions design their own programs.
