Memory and Creativity: Elder Folk Artist Showcase

11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m.
Mathers Museum of World Cultures

This program highlights the art-making practices of elders as a successful aging strategy. The program includes demonstrations by elder folk artists, calligraphers James and Jenny Yang, carver Bob Taylor, and dollmaker Jenny Kander, as well as a discussion with the elders hosted by Mathers Museum Curator Jon Kay. Come watch the artists work, talk with them about their creative pursuits, and then stay for the narrative stage to hear artists discuss the benefits of the arts for older adults. The event will be free and open to the public and is sponsored by the Creative Aging Festival.
