Summary

This study tests whether art therapy—like painting, clay modeling, and collage—can improve thinking and hand coordination in people with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease.

Researchers will measure memory, attention, and fine motor skills to see if art therapy helps with daily tasks and quality of life.
