Our Dedication to Life Enrichment Through Expressive Arts Therapies

The Kensington Bethesda offers an ever-changing calendar of events to residents seven days a week, from morning till evening. Life enrichment is one of our top priorities and our full-time dedicated team is proud to offer a wide variety of programming including Music Therapy, Art Therapy & Brain Wellness.

Each resident contributes to our Kensington family, whether it’s a passion for golf, a musical talent, or a love of cooking. Our activities and seasonal events appeal to a wide variety of interests, hobbies, social preferences, traditions, cultures and faiths. With such a wide range, our life enrichment programming allows residents to share and grow their interests while also celebrating the uniqueness of our resident community.

Additionally, Pocket Programs, which are small-group activities tailored to different interests and abilities, provide opportunities for friendship, and boost a sense of mastery. These programs enable each resident to participate in small-group activities based on their interests and abilities. 

An active social life is vital to senior health and well-being. At The Kensington Bethesda, every day is unique and interesting, offering engaging community and companionship that reaches far beyond keeping busy.
