“Music hath charms that soothe the savage breast” but it also can work miracles on the memory! Come and learn from our classical pianist guest and lecturer, Marja Kaisla, about the latest research on engaging in musical activity to improve memory and processing speed, how music increases activity on both the left and right sides of the brain, and how it can prevent cognitive brain diseases and dementia. She will also share how to engage in musical activity regularly to communicate better, enhance personal and spiritual life, and preserve and strengthen social networks. The presentation includes live piano music, demonstrations, and audience involvement. All welcome, elder or younger. Come, listen, learn, remember! Holiday TGIF to Follow!
