About the exhibition:
This January and February, twelve Portlanders attended the Museum’s artNOW program designed for individuals living with dementia and their care-partners. On four consecutive Monday afternoons, the group explored the idea of personal journeys through lively discussion of the art on view and created visual journals that will be exhibited in the Museum’s Object Stories gallery this summer (on view May 14-September 10,) along with recorded reflections from each pair. The journals beautifully depict each artist’s connection to the environment, cities, each other, and ultimately their idea of home
