Join us on November 13th from 12:00 pm to 1:30 pm Eastern to learn how the arts can foster meaningful connections between young people and older adults. Intergenerational arts programming has been shown to reduce ageist stereotypes, promote empathy and social inclusion, stimulate brain functioning, and reduce isolation. Hear from our presenters about ways to use music, dance, theater, and the visual arts to enhance your programming and build community.
