ACHF Arts Access
During a 10-week period we will meet with seniors for 60 minutes, once a week. The project will culminate in a sharing time (if they wish) during which participants gain meaningful experience with presentation to a small group of up to 40 invited guests. Facility staff conduct ongoing verbal review with participants and will continue gathering during the program period. This will be done through careful, ongoing written record of the experience, scheduled times of reflection with artistic and facility staff and a follow-up meeting that reviews needed adjustments.
We reached 80-90 seniors per week (during 10 weeks of instruction). In written feedback from participants, DI staff, Sholom staff and the interpreter we noticed recurrent positive feedback about the way we engaged participants who often do not choose to participate. The level of professional “know how” of our program was also remarked upon as well as its hands-on nature.
