What if the most meaningful moment of the day began with a simple question: “Which would you prefer today?” For people living with dementia, having the freedom to choose – what to wear, where to sit, whether to join a program or simply observe – can have a real impact on dignity and connection. At Artis, July's Power of Play theme explores how small, low-pressure choices create space for authentic engagement and presence with no “right” answers – just an open invitation to participate in a way that feels good today. Learn how Artis supports connection through play this summer. �

🐴✨ Pony Pals & Breezy Summer Days! ✨🐴
We had an amazing time enjoying the beautiful summer weather while soaking up the cool breeze outdoors!🌞 Our "Friendly neighborhood ponies" trotted by for a special visit.
Our residents had the chance to brush their lovely manes, share some treats, and make memories with our gentle four-legged friends. It was a hoof-tastic😉😂 afternoon filled with joy, laughter, and a little bit of pony magic!
After their visit, our pony pals gave us a final giddy-up goodbye as they headed back home. We can’t wait for their next visit!
