Linking Generations Through the Arts:

In 2006 Creative Retirement Manitoba launched a program in the arts that linked seniors living in Hartney Health Centre and in Souris in 2008 with children in the local schools. The team collected stories from both the seniors and the children and put it together into a community presentation. The art work provided a catalyst for relationships between the generations.

In 2008 Creative Retirement Manitoba repeated the project in Souris Manitoba with seniors and students that lived there. This project could be duplicated in any Manitoba community. There was great value in bringing the seniors and young people together through the arts. It is a gift from one human being to another to hold space and listen.
