A Community-Engaged Art Project at the Godfrey Dean Art Gallery

Watch the new video update on Belong Where You Find Yourself, presented at the 2022 Rural Dementia Action Research (RaDAR) Summit by Jeff Morton, Director & Curator at the Godfrey Dean Art Gallery.

By directly involving people living with dementia and their care partners, this project will contribute to a feeling of inclusion. Participants will meet at the gallery, collaborate on art making, share stories, and spend time over more than a year, ultimately seeing their work and their stories on display in a public art gallery.

Watch a video introduction of Belong Where You Find Yourself, presented at the Rural Dementia Action Research (RaDAR) Summit 2021.
