The arts have always had a profound impact on heart health, offering both emotional and physical benefits.   Art is also a potent therapeutic tool for Alzheimer’s patients, enriching life through cognitive engagement, emotional expression, and social interaction.  Art for the Heart and Mind is an event where artistic creativity meets heart and brain health. Attendees will experience the art of local artists and engage in a dynamic panel discussion with clinicians specializing in neurology, cardiology and family medicine.
