Abstract
Maps and Color, a world of memories, is an Art and Health (AR.S) project. The project funded by the PIRTU scholarship of the Junta de Castilla y León and European Social Fund (ORDEN EDU/1204/2010, of August 26), implemented in the State Reference Center for people with Alzheimer's and other Dementias of Imserso in Salamanca. The ARS program had been working on an artistic program for a year with elderly people with mild dementia and, due to the good reception of a first pilot program, the line of artistic training was continued. An art program was designed in which different artistic techniques and concepts of contemporary art were worked on. On this occasion, we worked on wet techniques (watercolor, gouache), through which the participants would develop a plastic language, experiences of socialization, enjoyment, care and meeting with family members; generating spaces for health and wellbeing.
