Community Programs

Seniors engaged in a group craft activity at a community center.

Art, Conversation, and Creative Connection for Older Adults

Arts & Minds partners with Morningside Retirement and Health Services, PSS Manhattanville Senior Center, SAGE Center, Columbia University Alzheimer’s Disease Research Center and other places where older adults gather. 

One- to two-hour programs on weekdays at various times. 

A work of art viewed on the big screen sparks a freewheeling conversation. As a group, participants make discoveries and connections that become the inspiration for art making.

All programs are free of charge. Registration is required for Arts & Minds in The Heights. See Program Schedule for details.

For Community Center Administrators

We bring our museum-based programs to your site in New York City for short or long-term residencies, where participants engage with historic or contemporary art through conversation and art-making activities. 

Arts & Minds partners with Older Adult Centers, Adult Day Centers, Naturally Occurring Retirement Centers (NORCs) and other community organizations.
