For over 30 years, he has led Béla Fleck &amp; The Flecktones, the groundbreaking quartet inspired by jazz, funk, bluegrass and beyond. He has written and performed three banjo concertos and traced the African origins of the banjo with the award-winning 2009 documentary Throw Down Your Heart. Collaborators include Abigail Washburn, the Brooklyn Rider String Quartet, Chris Thile, The Blind Boys of Alabama, McCoy Tyner, Zakir Hussain, Edgar Meyer, and Rakesh Chaurasia.

<a href="https://ridgefieldlibrary.org/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Ridgefield Library</a> has partnered with <a href="https://rvnahealth.org/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">RVNAhealth</a> to introduce a New! monthly Memory Café, held at the Library and created as a welcoming hour of shared activities, conversation, and connection for individuals living with memory changes and the care partners who support them
Memory Cafés began in Holland in the late 1990s as a simple idea: create a friendly, social setting where people experiencing memory changes and those who care for them could gather, enjoy familiar activities, and spend time together in a relaxed, supportive environment. Today, Memory Cafés are found worldwide and are designed for people living with memory changes and their care partners to enjoy together.
Each Memory Café offers a chance to step away from appointments, schedules, and daily responsibilities and simply enjoy time together. The hour includes a thoughtful mix of easy, enjoyable activities and time to socialize.&nbsp;Our first Café will feature a light, friendly activity to help everyone get acquainted.
A defining part of this new partnership is the involvement of <a href="https://rvnahealth.org/news/meet-danielle-taibi-ot-dementia-specialist/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">RVNAhealth Dementia Specialist, Danielle Taibi</a>, who offers a supportive and welcoming environment, focused on enjoyment, connection, and shared activities.
Guests are asked to attend with their care partner, who will stay with them for the full hour.
We look forward to welcoming the greater community to this&nbsp;NEW! monthly Memory Café&nbsp;experience!

*RVNAhealth is a private, 501(c)(3) nonprofit serving 35+ towns across Fairfield, Litchfield, and New Haven Counties. This program, supporting those experiencing memory changes and their care partners, is made possible by the generosity of donor support.
