The consortium of five Wisconsin art museums sharing resources to develop programs for families with dementia received some nice press this week. The Leigh Yawkey Woodson Art Museum in Wausau has crafted a 5-year plan to develop, offer, and evaluate programs for families with dementia through partnerships with local arts and aging organizations. The article got picked up and shared by the American Association of Museums as well! In addition to the Woodson, the consortium includes The Museum of Wisconsin Art (West Bend), The Racine Art Museum, the Milwaukee Public Museum, and the John Michael Kohler Art Museum (Sheboygan).
