  Elementary school students collaborate with those living with Alzheimer's

For the 2nd year in a row, the Alzheimer's Association Central Ohio Chapter has partnered with Wickliffe Progressive Elementary School in Upper Arlington in a very special art collaboration. The students of Wickliffe welcome those living with Alzheimer's into their art classroom for a four-week program that ends in a very special artshow. The students make special bonds with the Alzheimer's participants and help them with the processes they learn throughout the four-week program. The program ends with an art show where families of the students and Alzheiemer's participants come to celebrate their work. Learn more about the special collaboration in NBC4's coverage.
