Make a real difference volunteering in a groundbreaking project to benefit residents in Pathways Memory Care at Western Reserve Masonic Home. Using photographs from early life to elicit stories from past and bringing those stories to life through puppetry to create a museum.
Volunteers are needed to assist with the creation of museum houses and making clothespin puppets. The wooden houses that represent each resident's house will come to life as we furnish the house while creating miniature furniture and adding other embellishments.

Mission Statement
The Western Reserve Masonic Community "Music, Storytelling and Museum Project" improves the lives of elderly residents in our Memory Care facility by working to increase instances of memory retrieval and retention as triggered by stories and photos from various periods of their lives while decreasing problems related to the onset and progression of Alzheimer's and Dementia.
Description
The Western Reserve Masonic Community received funding of two grants by Ohio Arts Council: Arts Partnership, a two year program for music and storytelling and Arts Next, a one year program using Museum Houses to encourage bringing memories to life from childhood. Key to the success of both grant projects are many dedicated volunteers, who will be serving as companions to residents during their music and storytelling activities and helping with Museum House activities.
