Memory Cafes offer a welcoming and safe place for people living with memory changes and their care partners.

Memory Cafes reduce isolation and unite people facing similar challenges, creating an opportunity to give and receive support. Memory Cafes can provide a much-needed break from normal routines and a source of connections to others in the community.

Join us on the second Wednesday of each month at 1:30pm for a chance to have some fun and enjoy an activity. Refreshments provided.

This month's activity is gentle stretching and chair yoga.

Memory Cafes are a collaboration between Memorial Hall Library and the Robb Center. 

This is an event for people living with memory changes and their care partners to participate in together. Please register each person who will be attending.
