‘A box with (your) stories’ is a physical box with which stories can be told. The box can have different themes.
In the Hunebedcentrum museum the box can be used to introduce the story of the museum. 

Shared Reading is a methodology in which we organize reading sessions for a group of up to 12 people, which allows a lot of interaction, never forced or mandatory. We read a short story and a poem. The experience is the most important aspect, not the analysis. The sessions are supervised by a trained reading companion who is especially practiced in asking open questions, allowing silences, inviting people. This allows for a lot of interaction. In this way p

With the work of Joseph Cornell Blue Soap Bubble as an example, we asked some people from the municipal centers for the elderly, linked to the memory groups, to create their own symbolic memory spaces. A series of small museums of their lives that turned out to be visual poems that, like Cornell's work, overstep the real space and become metaphors full of life, poetry and humanity.

We organise contact choirs in which people with dementia sing together with their families, caregivers.

In a contact choir, people with dementia, caregivers, volunteers and healthcare providers are equal to each other. Not so much the singing itself, but the connection is central: you make a connection with yourself and with each other.

Meet me @ Middelheim is a program that provides guided tours for people with mild to moderate (young-onset) dementia. During the tour, people come together with their caregiver to enjoy the art in the park. Together with the museum guide, a number of art works are viewed. In doing so, the slow art technique is used: looking together, sharing together. During the tour, interaction and conversation are central.

This video describes the making of a culture club at the library. The club offers cultural events for couples where one of them is living with dementia and allows the pair to have mutual cultural experiences. Another goal is creating a room of confidence and the feeling of being safe.

The activity is a literature activity. It is a way of making it possible for people living with dementia to still experience and enjoy literature. The artist, Martin Anker Jensen, performed his poems/poetry slams after introducing himself thoroughly. He emphasizes his own vulnerability in order to make it easier for the participants to talk about their difficulties.

The aim of the activity is to inspire people living with dementia to a focused and concentrated listening to music. Music can be meditative and create a calm and pleasant atmosphere for the listener, but it can also be music that they know and that the potential listeners want to listen concentrated to. In this session, the producer made a mix in the free program Audacity, so that relaxing soundscapes of new age and ambient music were intertwined with nosta

The participants are offered a meaningful cultural activity that will help to enhance their life quality for a period of time. The participants have previously all been interested in literature, but are now beyond the time where they are able to read a book on their own. For a short time we are able to give them a new kind of literary experience.
