Perfect Harmony is a group music program for older adults living with dementia. In partnership with the Greater Indiana Chapter of the Alzheimer’s Association, Perfect Harmony offers a unique opportunity for social and musical engagement, and promotes holistic well-being through music.
Participants visit the Songbook Exhibit Gallery at the Palladium to participate in an hour-long Perfect Harmony session. Sessions are themed and based on various artists, holidays, seasons and musical genres. Participants can look forward to a different program each month, and enjoy a wide range of musical activities designed to promote social engagement and cognitive stimulation, including:
Each session serves 12-15 individuals, including caregivers, who are highly encouraged to participate. There is no cost to attend this program.
Perfect Harmony consults with a board-certified music therapist in an effort to provide the most effective non-clinical use of music. Individuals who participate in Perfect Harmony can benefit from peer socialization, emotional support, cognitive stimulation and positive interactions through music.
Given the current state of the COVID-19 global outbreak, the Songbook Foundation Exhibit Gallery is closed until further notice.
