Meeting with National Center for Creative Aging!!

This morning i had the amazing opportunity of meeting with the staff who provide the community with The National Center of Creative Aging!! I spoke with Katie, Adam, Allessi and Gay Hanna the Center's Executive Director.
The National Center of Creative Aging provide carers, organisations and facilities with information, research, webinar's and even online tool-kits and training kits to put 'Creative Aging' into practice...promoting the Arts for this Generation!! Programs such as 'Meet me at MOMA' and Kairos Dances 'Dancing Heart' all get published in the best practice database so that they can be implemented or developed within other facilties.
It was amazing speaking to Gay Hanna too - who worked collaboratively with Dr Gene Cohen, at the end of his life. It was great finding out more about him and how passionate he was about this field of work. Dr Gene Cohen would certainly be proud of The National Center of Creative Aging for its dedication and continuous development within this field.
