Maverick shares the joy of seeing his grandmother thrive at Artis — from compassionate care to creative expression through art. “It’s just a joy,” he says, watching her engage and connect in a place where genuine people support and uplift each resident.
Life Enrichment at Artis is powered by people with the training, heart, and intuition to transform everyday moments into meaningful experiences. Meet Marlene, one of our Life Enrichment Directors, whose superpower is discovering what brings each resident to life.

“Everybody can be great… because anybody can serve.” – Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
Today, we honor Dr. King’s legacy of hope, compassion, and unity – the same spirit that inspires how we care for and connect with one another every day at Artis.
From small acts of kindness to big moments of service, we believe dignity, respect, and empathy are the foundation of community. Together, we carry forward his dream – by choosing to lift each other up, listen deeply, and lead with heart. 💙

🚐 Scenic smiles at Olney Memory Care!
Our residents enjoyed a beautiful ride around town today, soaking in the views, sharing stories, and pointing out all their favorite spots. The highlight of the trip? Spotting horses along the way — and you should’ve heard the excitement every time someone saw one grazing in a field.
Fresh air, good company, and a little unexpected “horse‑watching” made for the perfect afternoon. 🌤️🐴
More adventures coming soon! … See MoreSee Less

🍩 Runs on Dunkin’… and laughter! ☕
Our residents took a sweet little field trip to Dunkin’ today, and the vibes were as warm as the hot chocolate. Between choosing their favorite donuts, sipping something cozy, and chatting with friends, it turned into the perfect mid‑day treat.
There were sprinkles, smiles, and a whole lot of “Which donut should I get next?” energy. Honestly, we might have a few new Dunkin’ superfans on our hands.
Simple outings, big joy — that’s how we like it at Olney Memory Care. 💛 … See MoreSee Less

🎩 The Magic Hat was on a mission at Olney Memory Care!
Today’s Magic Hat Game turned into a full‑blown comedy show. That hat was bouncing from person to person like it had a mind of its own — and every time it landed, the room erupted.
We had dramatic acting, surprise challenges, wild guesses, and at least one resident who tried to negotiate with the hat like it was a celebrity. The hat did not negotiate.
There were belly laughs, playful groans, victory dances, and a few “I can’t believe I just did that!” moments. Honestly, the hats might be the most powerful entertainer we’ve ever hosted.
✨ One hat. Endless chaos. Maximum fun. … See MoreSee Less

These frosty friends won’t melt — but the smiles they brought definitely warmed our hearts. ❄️💙
Stay tuned… our crafty crew is just getting started! … See MoreSee Less

🍪 BREAKING NEWS FROM OLNEY MEMORY CARE 🍪
Today’s cookie‑baking adventure quickly turned into a full‑blown sweet treat takeover. Our residents rolled up their sleeves and unleashed their inner pastry pros… and maybe a few cookie bandits too.
Flour floated through the air like confetti. Dough mysteriously vanished (we’re not naming names, but we saw those crumbs). And the “official taste‑testing committee” took their job very seriously.
The final verdict:
✨ Cookies = delicious
✨ Laughs = nonstop
✨ Kitchen = slightly chaotic but 100% worth it
Who knew baking could double as a workout for our abs from laughing so hard? … See MoreSee Less
