The garden, in partnership with the Cognitive Aging Research Education (CARE) Center, has been piloting a program called Meet Me at the Garden. This program is designed for people with dementia and their care partners. Dyads come together for socializing, learning about environmental topics and exploring the outdoors on a sensory walk. Cora Keber will share the history of the partnership, the structure of the program and goals for the future. Participants will get to engage in some programmatic activities for fun, learning and connection. 

Keber has been working at the State Botanical Garden of Georgia since the summer of 2007. She has held various positions over the years and has been the director of education since 2016. In this role, she oversees educational programming, implementation and evaluation for pre-K through lifelong learners.

The registration deadline is noon on July 3.
