This is a daylong opportunity for practitioners working in aging-services organizations, arts centers, museums, healthcare, senior residences, and beyond to learn together about the positive impact of creative aging through deep conversation and hands-on learning. Using the temporary exhibition "Composing Color: Paintings by Alma Thomas from the Smithsonian American Art Museum" (opening on September 8) as a springboard, the 2024 Creative Aging Convening is focused on celebrating the role of art in lifelong creativity, longevity, and perseverance.Attendees will:
- Experience "Composing Color: Paintings by Alma Thomas from the Smithsonian American Art Museum" and understand the impact of Alma Thomas’ long life and impactful career.
- Engage in small group discussion on key skills, tools, and topics relevant to the field.
- Refuel (both self and work) through creative and mindful activities that help to slow down, be present, and explore creativity.
- Create connections with others working in the fields of aging, arts, and culture.
Tickets are $50 and include full-day program attendance, boxed lunch, and light refreshments throughout the day.
