Memory Cafe in Marin—4/27/2026

Monday, April 27 @ 1:00pm3:00pm

Free
senior and caregiver

Join us as we examine ageism through art at the Marin Civic Center Art Gallery. The What About Age? exhibit examines ageism, a pervasive form of discrimination that affects everyone and consists of our attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors towards ourselves and others based on age.

Caring for a loved one with memory loss doesn’t have to be a lonely job. Memory Cafe is a gathering for people experiencing mild to moderate memory loss and their caregivers (spouses, family members, or friends). Enjoy time with your loved one and meet others who are dealing with similar issues in a supportive and welcoming environment.

Memory Cafe meets on many Thursdays in Marin at different locations. Participants must be accompanied by their caregiver.

RSVP required by April 19th. Email Amy Takemoto at Memorycafe@jfcs.org. Please indicate the date of the event, participant and caregiver’s name and which event you are responding to in the email.

About this outing: Meet on the 1st floor of the Civic Center Art Gallery. This exhibit aims to challenge stereotypes around aging and promote intergenerational conversations through the lens of art. In partnership with Youth in Arts, the exhibit will feature artworks by local youth and senior artists, showcasing how age intersects with creativity, identity, and experience. Under the guidance of Youth in Arts teaching artists, these emerging and established artists will work side by side and create collaborative art pieces fostering dialogue between generations, while reflecting the core message of the exhibit: that art is ageless.
