Residency Program: Working with Older Adults
Center on Age and Community, University of Wisconsin - Milwaukee
Deadline: May 15th, 2008.
The only program of its kind in the country, the three-month
Residency in Applied Arts was designed to encourage artists to apply
their talents to working with older adults. This pioneering new
initiative will link established artists from all disciplines to the
rapidly growing field of elder care. Projects address the quality of
life of people with dementia and raise public awareness about their
capacities. The residency carries a $20,000 stipend, with additional
funds for housing, travel, and supplies.
The Residency in
Applied Arts is part of CAC's larger Creativity and Culture Initiative,
the goals of which are to increase thoughtful, diverse representations
of aging and to increase the number of applied arts projects geared
toward older adults. The arts and humanities have been shown to expand
communication and improve the quality of life for people with dementia
and those who care for them. They also enable older adults to develop a
sense of mastery and control, to build skills, and to participate in
culture at large.
We are now accepting applications for the 2009 Residency in Applied Arts. Applications are due May 15th, 2008.
