Wilton Library Memory Cafe: A Monthly Gathering for Individuals Living with Memory Challenges and Care Partners

Wilton Library, in partnership with RVNAhealth, an independent nonprofit healthcare agency that has served Western Connecticut since 1914, invites those living with memory challenges and their care partners to a welcoming, relaxed and supportive monthly gathering inspired by the original Alzheimer’s Cafe in Holland. This Memory Cafe offers an informal and comfortable space to socialize, connect with others who share your journey, and enjoy meaningful moments together.

Each month will feature conversation, community and uplifting activities, including music, storytelling, therapy pet visits, crafts, sweet treats, refreshments and more. Our first meeting will include a special “getting-to-know-you” activity. Come prepared for smiles, laughter and lots of fun! We can’t wait to welcome you to our Memory Cafe!

RVNAhealth dementia specialists and library staff will be available to offer support and ensure that everyone feels welcome and at ease. To be admitted to the program, each Memory Cafe participant must be accompanied by their care partner for the entire hour.

Registration is required. Register by emailing Caryn Friedman-Quinn or calling 203.762.6320. Please include both partner’s names and a telephone number or email at which you can be contacted.
