Janae Taylor from OHSU will kick off the day with a presentation on the impact of creativity, and the physical and cognitive health benefits of social connection and relationship quality as we age.

 

We'll hear from Earthtones about the importance of music.

 

Eastside Village will tell us about their Messy Beautiful Art (MBA) program.

 

After lunch, we'll enjoy demonstrations and inspiration from local artists (some of whom are Villagers) to encourage creative engagement for social and physical health. Collage, stitchery, Legos, music and dance, drumming, creative writing, and much more. 

 

Come and experience what fun and healthful benefits we can reap from the arts!
