Join ACL’s Commit to Connect initiative and engAGED: The National Resource Center for Engaging Older Adults, for a webinar and office hours on advancing social connection through creative expression and art. During the webinar, the National Assembly of State Arts Agencies will explain how art, culture, and creative expression can play an important role in strengthening social connection for older adults, people with disabilities, and caregivers. Attendees will also hear from the Central Vermont Council on Aging and Dances For A Variable Population on how their programs use the arts to promote social connections for older adults.

Immediately following the 60-minute webinar, Commit to Connect and engAGED will host a 30-minute “office hours” to allow for an open discussion with the webinar speakers and participants.

This event will include CART captioning and American Sign Language interpretation. The webinar will be recorded and shared publicly following the event. If you have any questions or additional accessibility requests, please reach out to info@committoconnect.org.
