Event Details
The Gold Coast Arts Center presents Making Memories Through the Arts at the Great Neck Library, a live program designed for people with memory loss and their caregivers to enjoy. This hour-long program will feature clips from some of your favorite classic films, with guided conversation led by social worker Marcy Rhodes.
Recognizing that music and movies have the power to spark memories and create emotional connections, these events allow participants with opportunities to sing, clap, laugh and engage in discussion while socializing with others.
