Alzheimer’s Group Dances With Daffodils

The New York Memory Center (NYMC) and their partner the Alzheimer’s Poetry Project recently put on another Memory Arts Café event hosted by NYMC’s poet-in-residence Gary Glazner — part of a series of free events that seeks to inspire and improve the lives of people who suffer from dementia and Alzheimer’s with culturally significant performance art.

In this installment, Gary and the gang team up with the very talented tap dancer Kazu Kumagai to put a beat to the poetry of William Wordsworth (with just a bit of artistic license).

Watch the video below to see the foot-tapping poetry in motion.
