COCREATING

What We Do

 

How do you provide opportunities for people of all ages to have meaningful connections with community members and share their stories? How do you transform people’s views about aging and remove the stigma? Inspired by TimeSlips - a story creation process that replaces the pressure to remember with the freedom to imagine -The Imagination Network brings older adults (many living with the experience of dementia) together with artists and community members to co-create powerful and inspiring works of art.
