About “Perspectives: Looking at Art at DHMC
Perspectives offers an opportunity for individuals with memory disorders
and their care partners to visit the world-class work by local and regional
artists who are currently featured at Dartmouth-Hitchcock. Looking at art
is an activity that can be especially enjoyable and beneficial to those
with Alzheimer’s disease and other memory disorders. Art-viewing utilizes
areas of the brain unaffected by the disease; it can stimulate thoughts,
reactions and emotions with minimal reliance on recent memory. This program
is presented by the Aging Resource Center in collaboration with D-H Arts
Program.

Directions to Auditorium D:  Enter the main hospital entrance, turn right
