The Austin area has never needed much convincing when it comes to art, and it turns out a lifetime surrounded by creativity has real health benefits for older adults.

The Positive Benefits of Arts and Crafts for Seniors From cognitive health to emotional well-being, the benefits of arts and crafts for seniors are well-documented. Creative expression matters.

A huge thank you to Sage Plum Creek for welcoming me to present the Alzheimer's Association: Capital of Texas Chapter program, 10 Warning Signs of Alzheimer’s.

It was an honor to spend time with such an engaged group and have meaningful conversations about brain health, early detection, and the importance of recognizing the signs of Alzheimer’s and other dementias. Education and awareness are so important in helping individuals and families navigate this journey.

Thank you to Mitzi and everyone at Sage Plum Creek for your hospitality and for helping bring these important resources to your community. I truly enjoyed meeting everyone and appreciate the opportunity to share information that can make a difference.

Together, we can continue to raise awareness, reduce stigma, and support those affected by Alzheimer’s disease.
