Fostering Connection and Joy in Prescott

At iCARE Adult Day Center, our Creative Arts & Crafts program turns every session into a celebration of imagination and accomplishment. Participants dive into painting, knitting, scrapbooking, and seasonal decorations using safe, adaptive tools tailored to all ability levels. Our warm studio space invites self-expression without pressure, creating beautiful keepsakes that tell personal stories and bring families together.

Empowering Our Care Team

Led by certified art therapists, these activities go beyond fun—they’re proven therapy for the mind and hands. Whether finger-painting memories or crafting holiday ornaments, every project builds confidence and connection. Families treasure the artwork that comes home, a tangible reminder of their loved one’s vibrant spirit.

Why It Matters

Creative arts reduce anxiety by 42% and improve cognitive function, according to Alzheimer’s Association studies. Real iCARE families share: “Mom’s paintings are now on every wall—it’s her legacy!” and “Dad’s scarf project gave him purpose again.” We see it daily: brighter smiles, steadier hands, and artwork that captures the beauty of each participant’s unique journey.
