Real people. Real moments. Real Artis.

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.

Our new Memoir Writing club has kicked off today! Each time we meet to write, we’ll have a new topic to cover. Today we talked about scene writing, specifically set around the dining room table your family sat around growing up; the smells, the conversations, the celebrations and more.

April is National Gardening Month! 🌱 Here at Artis, we just love putting our green thumbs to work. Try our can’t-miss recipe for the perfect spring window box!
🌸 Pansies – Cool-weather champions with happy faces!
🌼 Snapdragons – Bright vertical blooms that add height and drama
🌸 Petunias – Classic spillers that overflow beautifully
🌿 Sweet Alyssum – Tiny clusters with a soft, sweet fragrance
☀️ 4–6+ hours of sun = best blooms
💧 Water when the top inch feels dry
Gardening offers a sensory-rich experience (scents, textures, sights) that can reduce stress, stimulate memory, and provide a sense of accomplishment. Looks pretty, too! 😍

🌿 As spring arrives, nature offers fresh opportunities for people living with dementia. The sights, sounds, textures, and scents of the natural world engage multiple areas of the brain at once, often sparking memories and creating calm.
With our Power of Play: Play as Nature programming, Artis residents have the chance to get their hands dirty in our raised garden beds, explore secure outdoor walking paths, engage with sensory nature stations, and create art from natural elements – all thoughtfully designed to help ease anxiety and support connections.
And for families, these simple, shared moments can become treasured parts of the journey we’re taking together. 💙 Discover how Play as Nature breathes new life into the joys and purpose of life at Artis.
