The aim of the diploma thesis is to design and verify a set of activities for seniors using the methods of artephiletics. The main part of the work was to create activation exercises aimed on strengthening the self-confidence and self-awareness with the help of artistic expression. In the theoretical part, the terminological background from the field of gerontology, gerontopedagogy and artephiletics is clarified. This part is followed by closer characteristics of the specific social facilities, where the project was implemented and verified. The contents of the practical part are medallions of clients with whom the project was performed. The design of used exercises considers the individual psycho-motoric abilities of clients. This is followed by the realization itself with progress recording and self-evaluation with suggestions for changes and a partial evaluation of each activity. In the thesis conclusion an overall evaluation of the project and self- reflection is presented. The main object of the thesis was successfully fulfilled; the designed project was verified on two groups of seniors. According to clients' feedback, whole project proved to be meaningful and valuable. KEYWORDS Seniors, Ageing, Activation activities, Artephiletics, Visual arts, Reflective dialogue.
