Real people. Real moments. Real Artis.
Watch how our residents and team members bring our value of “Inspired Well-Being”
to life in every story.
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.

May is Mental Health Awareness Month – and at Artis, we know that supporting our residents means supporting the families and caregivers who love them, too.
Caregiving is meaningful work. It's also emotionally demanding in ways that are easy to minimize and hard to sustain alone. Nearly 1 in 4 U.S. adults are currently caring for a loved one – and many are doing so without much support of their own.
To help, we put together some thoughts on how caregivers can protect their well-being, and how friends and family can show up for the caregivers in their lives.🔗 artisseniorliving.com/blog/caring-for-the-caregiver-supporting-mental-health-well-being/

🎶 A familiar song. The soft chime of wind through hanging shells. A melody hummed quietly together.
Sound has a unique way of reaching people living with dementia – engaging memory, emotion, and presence in ways that feel natural and unforced.
At Artis, our Power of Play programming uses music, rhythm, and sensory experience to create moments of genuine connection between residents and the people who love them.
This Mother's Day, Artis communities are hosting a special Sound Connection Studio where residents and families will come together to create wind chimes by hand – pausing to listen and explore together.
