Can arts engagement improve wellbeing for older adults?

I always loved arts in the hospital. It always calmed me down. There is just something about it.

they pick it up as a hobby

they’re not true artists, and never studied it.

leave it to the people who know what they’re doing.

I think art is for everyone and anyone can create art.

Art is for everybody, and I think it’s great for anyone to get more involved in the arts however they can.

It certainly helps me, anyway. When I was younger I was in some bands, but nobody goes to see live rock shows in my town anymore. The local music scene is pretty much dead.

I play acoustic guitar on the side of the street sometimes. Once in a while I paint. Sometimes it helps.

my life is a constant swirling juggling act between, literature, art, and music…I wouldn’t have it any other way.
