Participate in Project CHROMA
We are actively recruiting individuals over the age of 70 and/or diagnosed with Mild Cognitive Impairment to participate in our study of how music creativity can benefit cognition and social/emotional wellbeing! Participants will have the chance to learn, compose, and create their own music and to meet other people from the Houston community. More info here.
