A Memory Café is a free, casual gathering where people with memory loss and the family or friends who care for them can come together in a safe, supportive, relaxed environment. Guests share conversations over a cup of coffee and games, crafts, music or other simple activities. Memory Cafés are not a form of respite care. Instead, they offer a place where both caregiver and care recipient can enjoy one another’s company and interact with others who share similar experiences.
In October, we welcome back Master Gardeners Candace Gislason and Gine Meissner, who will tell us about the joy of succulents and send us home with an indoor cactus-type friend to keep us company during the cold of winter!
The Cook County Memory Café meets at The Hub the third Thursday of each month through the support of the Lloyd K. Johnson Foundation, Live Well at Home and the Grand Marais Hub/Senior Center. For more information, call Care Partners at 387-3788 or click here.
