Programs
Rooted in a strong respect for elders and their history, CATA’s Art Cart program uses the expressive power of the arts to inspire nursing home residents to share their life stories and talents.
CATA faculty visit residents at nursing homes and rehabilitation centers at six Integritus Healthcare locations in Pittsfield, Williamstown, Lenox, Great Barrington, and North Adams, and at Laurel Ridge Senior Living Residence in Lanesborough, to offer engaging experiences in music and movement. The Art Cart forges profound and often therapeutic connections for an older population, including those with Alzheimer’s and dementia, as well as patients in rehabilitation.
Interested in bringing CATA workshops to your nursing home, residence, or program? Contact Thasia Giles, Program Director, at Thasia@CATAarts.org.
Each year as part of our Annual Performance, CATA’s team of “Art Cart Troubadours” perform an original song inspired by the words and memories of elders from Berkshire Healthcare residences. Through their performances, the Art Cart Troubadours bring the stories of our elders to the wider community.
Video: The Art Cart Troubadours perform “Happy Singing With You”— an original song inspired by the voices and words of elders who take part in CATA’s Art Cart program.
