Join Creative Flagstaff and the Arizona Commission on the Arts to learn more about Creative Aging, an exciting national movement to advance understanding of the vital relationship between creative expression and healthy aging. The Arts Commission’s Director of Arts Learning, Elisa Radcliffe, and AZ Creative Aging Coordinator and teaching artist Angelina Ramirez will provide an interactive exploration of the different approaches used across the continuum of care, and the research which shows that older adults who are engaged in the arts experience better overall health, enjoy a higher quality of life, and are more active in their communities.
