Starting in March 2026, seniors in Antigonish, Nova Scotia, can join free online art and wellness workshops designed to support their mental and physical health from home. Arts Health Antigonish is hosting these interactive sessions to give older adults a way to express themselves creatively and connect with others.
These programs bring together local artists, teachers, and healthcare staff to help residents manage daily challenges and improve their overall well-being. Because the sessions are held online through Zoom, participants can take part without needing to worry about travel costs or transportation.
In addition to the arts-based programs, Nova Scotia Health is offering regular health and wellness workshops for any resident aged 18 and older. These classes are free for anyone with a valid provincial health card and cover various topics to help people stay healthy.
To keep everything private for those who join, the organizers do not record any of the online sessions. These ongoing workshops are part of a provincial effort to use digital tools to help residents stay active and involved in community health programs without any cost to the participant.
