Sound Connections is a multi-generational music gathering where community members come together to create, connect, and thrive through live music making.

This event welcomes participants with memory loss. Additional caregivers will be available to provide care partner respite during the session. While loved ones are engaged in music-making, care partners are invited to gather to discuss local community needs and solutions for memory loss in Flagstaff.

Board Certified music therapist Meghan Callaghan MT-BC will facilitate activities including interactive singing, drumming, movement, songwriting, and guided dialogue.

Participation in Mountain Health Arts programs is free and generously supported by the Greg Hill Fund for Music in Dementia, The Edward and Wanda Jordan Family Foundation, and the following community partners:
