Dementia Education and Creative Aging
Living Fully Alive with Dementia
Imagine living a flourishing life while on this dementia journey.
Life with dementia doesn’t have to be void of beauty and joy. We work together to find the balance between sorrow and flourishing. When we look at the person before us, we should see a full person, with dignity, with gifts to give, and with respect for what it means to live well in this very moment.

Educator + Artist
I’m Kate Fassbender
Hello! I am an educator, artist, storyteller, and former family care partner. I closely accompany fellow elder care professionals and those living with dementia as we restore beauty and flourishing in a life now dealing with dementia.
I help care staff provide quality care, and equip those living with dementia with the “Art Supplies” they need to magnify the dignity and purpose each human holds.
