You are viewing a piece of artwork with a person with dementia. How can you promote interaction? Stand silently while looking at the artwork together. Provide handheld artmaking tools such as pencils. Play music where the artwork is hanging. Ask them what they see

Promoting interaction with a person with dementia when viewing artwork involves engaging them in a way that stimulates their cognitive and sensory faculties. Asking them what they see encourages them to express their thoughts and feelings, which can be therapeutic and engaging. This method is more effective than passive observation or unrelated activities.
