Memory Café

Here at Iona, we know that it can be difficult to plan special time with your partner, spouse, parent, other family member, or friend — especially if you are also navigating the challenges of Alzheimer’s or other forms of dementia.

That’s why we offer Memory Cafés for individuals with memory loss and their caregivers, family members, and friends to get together in a safe and supportive environment. This is a judgement-free zone. But, more importantly, it’s also a fun zone — where family and friends can enjoy good food, good entertainment, and good company.

What to expect:

Our Memory Cafés meet every month with a fifth Friday from 5-7 PM. Refreshments and an interactive activity are always part of the fun!

This month, we’ll be “taking a cruise” on the SS IONA. Enjoy some grilled burgers, explore your creativity during a photo booth session, and laugh with friends! You’ll take home a framed photo memento of your evening sailing adventure.

For more information, please contact Sharon O’Connor at (202) 895-9469.  To sign-up for our next Memory Café on Friday, June 30, 2017 please email registration@iona.org. There is a requested contribution of $20 per couple.
