Creative Aging
Art for Older Adults
Monthaven Arts and Cultural Center is excited to present our Senior Art Program, which is now available to your senior center. Our highly trained instructors provide fun, creative, high-quality art activities for your seniors.
The Arts Help Seniors In Three Important Ways
Cognitive Health
Neurological research shows that making art can improve cognitive functions by producing both new neural pathways and thicker, stronger dendrites.
Stress Relief
Researchers found that 75 percent of people involved in art classes had lowered stress.These people had lower levels of cortisol, which is the hormone that regulates the body’s stress response.
Engagement
Seniors look forward to participating in engaging activities that give them a real sense of accomplishment.
