Enchanting Aging: Inspiring Awe and Meaning in Late Life An Evening with Anne Basting Wednesday, February 27, at 7 p.m. Gerontology 124 Award-winning theatre artist and educator Anne Basting is working toward a moment when the arts are integral to the entire life cycle. Through the nonprofit TimeSlips Creative Storytelling and books including Forget Memory: Creating Better Lives for People with Dementia and The Penelope Project: An Arts-Based Odyssey to Change Elder Care, Basting has put forth an alternative concept of aging, one that focuses on possibilities as well as challenges, and that understands art and emotional connection as critical to our well-being as we age. Join us for an interactive workshop and a presentation that will inspire you to age—and think about aging—in a new way.
