Westminster Village Terre Haute, Inc. and Thrive West Central are working together to conduct a Connections Cafe at 10:30 a.m. Monday, April 6. This month we will exercise in our chairs, play some brain games, sing favorite oldies, and make a spring craft.

A Connections Cafe provides a comfortable and welcoming social gathering for anyone who wants to maintain brain health and for those living with mild to moderate dementia and their care partners.

We will meet at Westminster Village (enter the building to the right). Stop at the front desk and someone will guide you upstairs to the fifth floor. Questions? Call Amy at 812-238-1561.
