Power point presentation from the webinar presented by the Arts and Health Alliance (formerly the Global Alliance for Arts & Health) entitled, Creativity and Aging Forum: Embrace the Moment! Creativity Matters with Gay Hanna, National Center for Creative Aging in 2009.

The aging is a term that describes all of us, but the New York State Office for the Aging's constituency is limited to the nearly three million New Yorkers over sixty. They are sixteen percent of the state's population and twenty-three percent of all those old enough to vote.

The conference also highlighted the fact that older Americans are an important new constituency for expanding arts programs, as audiences, as contributors of time, skills, knowledge and other resources, and as students, teachers, and creators. More than 200 arts and aging leaders from thirty-one states, the District of Columbia and Canada participated.

ART CART: SAVING THE LEGACY is an intergenerational, interdisciplinary, interprofessional arts legacy project that connects aging professional artists (62+) with teams of advanced students to undertake the preparation and preservation of their creative work, offering a model of positive aging and an educational experience that will help shape the future of our American cultural legacy.
