Engaging Dementia have teamed up again with IMMA’s Azure Programme and have FREE online art tours (from the comfort of home!) this October and November. If anyone is interested, more details below:
Due to the popularity of the FREE IMMA’s Azure Programme’s Online Art Tours, we have teamed up again to run 4 more tours this October & November.
These virtual tours are designed for people living with dementia, their families, carers, and supporters, offering a gentle and inclusive way to explore and enjoy art from the comfort of home.
Connecting through art: Looking at art can be a transformative experience. Art can move us, and prompt us to think or ask questions. IMMA’s Azure tours give people living with dementia and those close to them; a family member, friends or professional carer, the opportunity to view and experience artworks together. During Azure, you will explore a selection of artwork from IMMA’s Collection with an understanding and supportive facilitator who has received special training in dementia-inclusive arts programming.
It is a creative and engaging way to stay connected and inspired.
The Dates for the Online Sessions are:
• Thursday 16th of October at 3pm
• Thurs 23rd of October at 3pm
• Friday 14th of November at 3pm
• Friday 21st November at 3pm

What you need
Participants will need to have their own laptop or a shared laptop between 2 people. They will need to be able to hear the facilitators, and the facilitators will need to hear the participants, so the laptop/PC will need a speaker and a microphone.
Booking for a Group
Unfortunately, large groups sitting around 1 screen are not conducive to the above sessions so If you wish to book a group, just email Horizons@imma.ie and Sundara will book you in a bespoke session for your group.
