Resumen
The “Visual Alphabet “Project: Art and Health Alzheimer’s, is a project that aims to bring contemporary art education, proverbs and caligraphy for people with early dementia, their family members, caregivers and healthcare personal. Allowing them to participate in funny, creative and cultural activities. This article exposed arts education program designed and implemented during 2014 and 2015 in the State Reference Center of care for people with Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias of Salamanca, under the Aging and Services Sociale Institute (IMSERSO). The program objectives are focused not only on improving the quality of life and preserve cognitive abilities through the use of art as a tool, it also raise awareness eradicating stigma associated with the disease in early stages, where the participant can participate and communicate. The program results allow us to consider that arts education can offer a new opportunity for individual and collaborative learning, develop cognitive and functional abilities, expand emotional resources and enjoy the experience, strengthen security and self-esteem in themselves, with the ability to be an active part of the program
