The Creative Aging Collaborative (NEW!)

A vibrant and interactive online community for creative aging providers.

Join The Creative Aging Collaborative (The Co-Lab), our new interactive community space for program staff, teaching artists, and administrators who have attended Lifetime Arts’ Creative Aging Foundations Training. Continue learning, networking, and improving your practice with real talk, advice, insights, and stories of inspiration from fellow Co-Lab members, guest speakers, and Lifetime Arts staff.

Who It’s For:

The Co-Lab is designed for teaching artists and staff at community organizations seeking to renew, deepen, or expand their creative aging practice. Memberships will be multi-sector, including independent artists and staff working in museums, public libraries, veterans homes, museums, arts organizations, older adult housing, and all the spaces and places where older adults live, work, and play.
