 n ManorThe creative process increases self-esteem\, reduces depression\, i
 mproves memory\, promotes critical thinking\, encourages playfulness\, pro
 vides a sense of control\, nurtures spirituality\, and builds friendships 
 between residents and people outside their generation.In 2006\, a study by
  George Washington University on behalf of the National Endowment for the 
 Arts\, found that the arts have a positive effect on health and illness as
  we age. Current studies in art therapy\, music therapy and other creative
  pursuits confirm that art can affect individuals in positive ways\, wheth
 er they are creating art or enjoying the works of another.Encouraging olde
 r adults to take up the arts and express themselves is a natural fit for P
 MMA’s philosophy of empowering older adults to live the way they want to l
 ive.Through the Art is Ageless program\, residents and friends of PMMA (Pr
 esbyterian Manors of Mid-America®) are proving that art\, in any form\, is
  an ageless ambition.

 n ManorThe creative process increases self-esteem\, reduces depression\, i
 mproves memory\, promotes critical thinking\, encourages playfulness\, pro
 vides a sense of control\, nurtures spirituality\, and builds friendships 
 between residents and people outside their generation.In 2006\, a study by
  George Washington University on behalf of the National Endowment for the 
 Arts\, found that the arts have a positive effect on health and illness as
  we age. Current studies in art therapy\, music therapy and other creative
  pursuits confirm that art can affect individuals in positive ways\, wheth
 er they are creating art or enjoying the works of another.Encouraging olde
 r adults to take up the arts and express themselves is a natural fit for P
 MMA’s philosophy of empowering older adults to live the way they want to l
 ive.Through the Art is Ageless program\, residents and friends of PMMA (Pr
 esbyterian Manors of Mid-America®) are proving that art\, in any form\, is
  an ageless ambition.

 n ManorThe creative process increases self-esteem\, reduces depression\, i
 mproves memory\, promotes critical thinking\, encourages playfulness\, pro
 vides a sense of control\, nurtures spirituality\, and builds friendships 
 between residents and people outside their generation.In 2006\, a study by
  George Washington University on behalf of the National Endowment for the 
 Arts\, found that the arts have a positive effect on health and illness as
  we age. Current studies in art therapy\, music therapy and other creative
  pursuits confirm that art can affect individuals in positive ways\, wheth
 er they are creating art or enjoying the works of another.Encouraging olde
 r adults to take up the arts and express themselves is a natural fit for P
 MMA’s philosophy of empowering older adults to live the way they want to l
 ive.Through the Art is Ageless program\, residents and friends of PMMA (Pr
 esbyterian Manors of Mid-America®) are proving that art\, in any form\, is
  an ageless ambition.

 n ManorThe creative process increases self-esteem\, reduces depression\, i
 mproves memory\, promotes critical thinking\, encourages playfulness\, pro
 vides a sense of control\, nurtures spirituality\, and builds friendships 
 between residents and people outside their generation.In 2006\, a study by
  George Washington University on behalf of the National Endowment for the 
 Arts\, found that the arts have a positive effect on health and illness as
  we age. Current studies in art therapy\, music therapy and other creative
  pursuits confirm that art can affect individuals in positive ways\, wheth
 er they are creating art or enjoying the works of another.Encouraging olde
 r adults to take up the arts and express themselves is a natural fit for P
 MMA’s philosophy of empowering older adults to live the way they want to l
 ive.Through the Art is Ageless program\, residents and friends of PMMA (Pr
 esbyterian Manors of Mid-America®) are proving that art\, in any form\, is
  an ageless ambition.

 n ManorThe creative process increases self-esteem\, reduces depression\, i
 mproves memory\, promotes critical thinking\, encourages playfulness\, pro
 vides a sense of control\, nurtures spirituality\, and builds friendships 
 between residents and people outside their generation.In 2006\, a study by
  George Washington University on behalf of the National Endowment for the 
 Arts\, found that the arts have a positive effect on health and illness as
  we age. Current studies in art therapy\, music therapy and other creative
  pursuits confirm that art can affect individuals in positive ways\, wheth
 er they are creating art or enjoying the works of another.Encouraging olde
 r adults to take up the arts and express themselves is a natural fit for P
 MMA’s philosophy of empowering older adults to live the way they want to l
 ive.Through the Art is Ageless program\, residents and friends of PMMA (Pr
 esbyterian Manors of Mid-America®) are proving that art\, in any form\, is
  an ageless ambition.

 n ManorThe creative process increases self-esteem\, reduces depression\, i
 mproves memory\, promotes critical thinking\, encourages playfulness\, pro
 vides a sense of control\, nurtures spirituality\, and builds friendships 
 between residents and people outside their generation.In 2006\, a study by
  George Washington University on behalf of the National Endowment for the 
 Arts\, found that the arts have a positive effect on health and illness as
  we age. Current studies in art therapy\, music therapy and other creative
  pursuits confirm that art can affect individuals in positive ways\, wheth
 er they are creating art or enjoying the works of another.Encouraging olde
 r adults to take up the arts and express themselves is a natural fit for P
 MMA’s philosophy of empowering older adults to live the way they want to l
 ive.Through the Art is Ageless program\, residents and friends of PMMA (Pr
 esbyterian Manors of Mid-America®) are proving that art\, in any form\, is
  an ageless ambition.

 n ManorThe creative process increases self-esteem\, reduces depression\, i
 mproves memory\, promotes critical thinking\, encourages playfulness\, pro
 vides a sense of control\, nurtures spirituality\, and builds friendships 
 between residents and people outside their generation.In 2006\, a study by
  George Washington University on behalf of the National Endowment for the 
 Arts\, found that the arts have a positive effect on health and illness as
  we age. Current studies in art therapy\, music therapy and other creative
  pursuits confirm that art can affect individuals in positive ways\, wheth
 er they are creating art or enjoying the works of another.Encouraging olde
 r adults to take up the arts and express themselves is a natural fit for P
 MMA’s philosophy of empowering older adults to live the way they want to l
 ive.Through the Art is Ageless program\, residents and friends of PMMA (Pr
 esbyterian Manors of Mid-America®) are proving that art\, in any form\, is
  an ageless ambition.

 n ManorThe creative process increases self-esteem\, reduces depression\, i
 mproves memory\, promotes critical thinking\, encourages playfulness\, pro
 vides a sense of control\, nurtures spirituality\, and builds friendships 
 between residents and people outside their generation.In 2006\, a study by
  George Washington University on behalf of the National Endowment for the 
 Arts\, found that the arts have a positive effect on health and illness as
  we age. Current studies in art therapy\, music therapy and other creative
  pursuits confirm that art can affect individuals in positive ways\, wheth
 er they are creating art or enjoying the works of another.Encouraging olde
 r adults to take up the arts and express themselves is a natural fit for P
 MMA’s philosophy of empowering older adults to live the way they want to l
 ive.Through the Art is Ageless program\, residents and friends of PMMA (Pr
 esbyterian Manors of Mid-America®) are proving that art\, in any form\, is
  an ageless ambition.

 n ManorThe creative process increases self-esteem\, reduces depression\, i
 mproves memory\, promotes critical thinking\, encourages playfulness\, pro
 vides a sense of control\, nurtures spirituality\, and builds friendships 
 between residents and people outside their generation.In 2006\, a study by
  George Washington University on behalf of the National Endowment for the 
 Arts\, found that the arts have a positive effect on health and illness as
  we age. Current studies in art therapy\, music therapy and other creative
  pursuits confirm that art can affect individuals in positive ways\, wheth
 er they are creating art or enjoying the works of another.Encouraging olde
 r adults to take up the arts and express themselves is a natural fit for P
 MMA’s philosophy of empowering older adults to live the way they want to l
 ive.Through the Art is Ageless program\, residents and friends of PMMA (Pr
 esbyterian Manors of Mid-America®) are proving that art\, in any form\, is
  an ageless ambition.

 n ManorThe creative process increases self-esteem\, reduces depression\, i
 mproves memory\, promotes critical thinking\, encourages playfulness\, pro
 vides a sense of control\, nurtures spirituality\, and builds friendships 
 between residents and people outside their generation.In 2006\, a study by
  George Washington University on behalf of the National Endowment for the 
 Arts\, found that the arts have a positive effect on health and illness as
  we age. Current studies in art therapy\, music therapy and other creative
  pursuits confirm that art can affect individuals in positive ways\, wheth
 er they are creating art or enjoying the works of another.Encouraging olde
 r adults to take up the arts and express themselves is a natural fit for P
 MMA’s philosophy of empowering older adults to live the way they want to l
 ive.Through the Art is Ageless program\, residents and friends of PMMA (Pr
 esbyterian Manors of Mid-America®) are proving that art\, in any form\, is
  an ageless ambition.

 n ManorThe creative process increases self-esteem\, reduces depression\, i
 mproves memory\, promotes critical thinking\, encourages playfulness\, pro
 vides a sense of control\, nurtures spirituality\, and builds friendships 
 between residents and people outside their generation.In 2006\, a study by
  George Washington University on behalf of the National Endowment for the 
 Arts\, found that the arts have a positive effect on health and illness as
  we age. Current studies in art therapy\, music therapy and other creative
  pursuits confirm that art can affect individuals in positive ways\, wheth
 er they are creating art or enjoying the works of another.Encouraging olde
 r adults to take up the arts and express themselves is a natural fit for P
 MMA’s philosophy of empowering older adults to live the way they want to l
 ive.Through the Art is Ageless program\, residents and friends of PMMA (Pr
 esbyterian Manors of Mid-America®) are proving that art\, in any form\, is
  an ageless ambition.

 reases self-esteem\, reduces depression\, improves memory\, promotes criti
 cal thinking\, encourages playfulness\, provides a sense of control\, nurt
 ures spirituality\, and builds friendships between residents and people ou
 tside their generation.</p><p>In 2006\, a study by George Washington Unive
 rsity on behalf of the National Endowment for the Arts\, found that the ar
 ts have a positive effect on health and illness as we age. Current studies
  in art therapy\, music therapy and other creative pursuits confirm that a
 rt can affect individuals in positive ways\, whether they are creating art
  or enjoying the works of another.</p><p>Encouraging older adults to take 
 up the arts and express themselves is a natural fit for PMMA’s philosophy 
 of empowering older adults to <em>live the way they want to live</em>.</p>
 <p>Through the Art is Ageless program\, residents and friends of PMMA (Pre
 sbyterian Manors of Mid-America®) are proving that art\, in any form\, is 
 an ageless ambition.</p>					</div>\n						</div>\n				</div>\n						</div>\n					</div>\n		</div>\n								</
