SF Friends School is a K-8 Quaker school in the Mission with 440 students. They have a lively arts program, including opportunities for students to work with elders through oral history projects, dancing, and drama.
Art With Elders is excited to participate in ‘Power To Change,’ the second annual virtual symposium hosted by Covia’s ‘Well Connected.’
“Power to Change, our second annual virtual creative aging symposium, will be held January 23rd, 2019. Our elders are looking for ways to have their voices heard, to create change in their lives, and the lives of others. We believe older adults can continue to transform the world and we want to ignite that belief in each symposium attendee.”
The symposium runs from 9 a.m. until 12:30 and features an array of creative presenters. Don’t miss 9:45 – 10:15 a.m. when Art With Elders’ Executive Director Mark Campbell and Instructor-Exhibits Manager Darcie O’Brien will speak about how creativity enhances the gifts of aging, and on the transformative emotional impacts of sharing art and community.
