\n Creating days filled with engagement, purpose, and delight.\n <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

We ask a lot of questions at Artis \u2013 and our genuine curiosity helps us do what we do best. The more we know about our residents, the better we can empower them to live more joyfully and with autonomy.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n

October Power of Play Signature Event   <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Artis Gourd Imagination Lab <\/strong>   <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\ud83c\udfa8 Creativity lives in the senses. By exploring texture, shape, color, and sound, we light up multiple pathways in the brain, each a new doorway to expression and connection.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Join us in celebrating the humble, wonderfully weird decorative gourd. Wrap them in ribbon, turn them into shakers, sort them by size, or help build a gourd village. However you participate, you belong at the table! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

An Artis Virtual Workshop for Families<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

End of life is something most people don\u2019t want to talk about. We often do not have the proper documents or discussions with our families when they are physically and cognitively able. Join us for an informative program led by End-of-Life Doula Chelsea Duckers about ways to help ensure a dying person\u2019s wishes are honored, and everyone is prepared for the\u202f\u202fjourney. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
