We welcome you to the digital exhibition "A Journey to the SENSE-GARDEN VR".
Both a physical and a virtual opening will happen on the 20. May 2022. The addresses are below.
The exhibition will still be open for visits during the Summer months.

This art competition and exhibition aims at creating public awareness on the possibilities the SENSE-GARDEN offers to people living with dementia and their families.

The SENSE-GARDEN is an innovative concept for care in dementia, using an immersive digital environment to improve well-being in persons living with dementia and their families. “SENSE-GARDEN aims at improving cognition by providing stimuli to the different senses, such as sight, touch, hearing, balance and smell, and ultimately leading to re-connecting with people and the reality around.”[*]

Step in the gallery or in the virtual world and see the winning and best-evaluated artworks in the art competition. Selected artworks from the cARTrefu Exhibition will also be presented.
