Museum objects evoke memories and encourage lively exchanges about special experiences and familiar activities. The interactive tours for people with dementia and their caregivers engage various senses and encourage shared conversations about the objects and their life stories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The museum also offers dementia-sensitive, interactive online workshops \u2013 bringing the museum to your home. A dialogue is initiated with the help of photos, videos, and music. Before the online meeting, participants will receive a package of materials by mail. The contents remain a surprise and will only be revealed during the online meeting. The materials and guided activities provided break up the screen-based situation and bridge the gap between digital and analogue spaces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The next dates for guided tours are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-container-content-69bc4bdf\"><strong>Sat 27 September 2025<\/strong> <strong>from<\/strong> <strong>10:15 to 11:30&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Living then and now<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Registration until September 21<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2014<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Sat 22 November 2025 from 10:15 to 11:30<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Topic: Highlight tour<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Registration until November 16<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2014<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The next online workshop will take place on <strong>November 14, 2025 from 3:30-4:30 PM<\/strong> and will be used to create an information trailer (participation is free, consent to use images and videos is required).
