🎶 Far more than entertainment, music is a lifeline for people on the dementia journey. It’s one of the most powerful tools we have for communication, connection, and emotional well-being. Even as memory shifts and language changes, the brain’s musical pathways often remain intact longer than other cognitive systems. A familiar melody can spark recognition, soothe anxiety, energize a sluggish afternoon, or open a door to conversation that words alone can no longer reach. ​​

See how at Artis, music is a form of care disguised as play – and learn 10 musical activities families can enjoy during visits!

Play engages the brain in uniquely powerful ways – supporting cognitive function, boosting mood, and building social connection. ​​

In 2026, we’re bringing inspired well-being to new heights at Artis by weaving even more purposeful play into daily life, from care to mealtime to life enrichment programs and more. ​​

Stay tuned for a year filled of play and purpose – and find out more about the science behind the Power of Play here: https://artisseniorliving.com/blog/artis-senior-living-launches-the-power-of-play/

☕🚂 All Aboard the Cocoa Express 🚂☕

We cozied up for a special Hot Cocoa Social, Polar Express–style! Our residents enjoyed warm cups of hot cocoa, sweet treats, and the magic of the season as we shared smiles, conversation, and holiday cheer.

With the spirit of the Polar Express all around us, this was the perfect way to slow down, connect, and enjoy a comforting moment together. Simple gatherings like these make the season feel extra special here at Olney.

Hot cocoa, good company, and holiday magic — what more could we ask for? 💙✨
