Join artist Jennie Johnston and MONOVA staff for an art-making workshop. This workshop is for those living with memory loss, Alzheimer's and dementia, and their caregivers.
Participants will receive brief instructions, and will then have the opportunity to create a symbol on cloth (with fabric markers or thread) that invokes a special memory.
No artistic skills are required. Staff will provide templates for tracing if necessary. This is a flexible and welcoming space for connection and making. Attendees may drop in and are not obligated to stay for the full duration of the program. These symbols will then be attached to the A Light in the Window: Symbols of Memory community quilt, currently on display at MONOVA.
Workshop attendees are also invited to the museum to view the final piece after June 2025.
