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.

After the bustle of the holidays, we’re leaning into what our minds and bodies naturally crave: light ☀️, laughter 🤣, and rhythm 🎶!
Throughout January, we’re exploring Play as Renewal – inviting residents, families and associates to reset through music and other multi-sensory experiences to ease stress and reawaken the rhythms that keep our days feeling bright and grounded.
Join us January 22 for our first Power of Play signature experience of 2026. 🎶 Rhythms of Renewal 🎶 is a shared experience of drumming, movement, and sound healing to awaken joy, deepen connection, and support well-being! 🪘🥁

For Cooking Club 🍕 our residents became pizza pros! Everyone stretched their own dough, shaped their pizzas, spread sauce like true specialists, and added toppings of their choice. In the end, we made 40 personal-size pizzas—and they were absolutely delicious!

🎶 Far more than entertainment, music is a lifeline for people on the dementia journey. It’s one of the most powerful tools we have for communication, connection, and emotional well-being. Even as memory shifts and language changes, the brain’s musical pathways often remain intact longer than other cognitive systems. A familiar melody can spark recognition, soothe anxiety, energize a sluggish afternoon, or open a door to conversation that words alone can no longer reach.
See how at Artis, music is a form of care disguised as play – and learn 10 musical activities families can enjoy during visits! artisseniorliving.com/blog/why-music-is-instrumental-for-people-living-with-dementia/
