Creative Aging Seed Projects in Rural Montana Libraries
Three sites for the 2025 program have been selected!
They are in the process of confirming who their artists will be and the dates for their upcoming programming. More to come very soon!
Participant feedback from the 2024 program:
“Writing…stimulated my imagination, gave me a new perspective and built up my self confidence . I would say we built a community of fledgling writers.”
“Even though I have lived here for 30 years and know these people when I see them in the grocery store, it was more like an acquaintance. it is really nice to be in an art making space with them. I did not know that art was an interest for them and now we have something in common.”
“This class has been so good for me. It gives me motivation to get out of the house and be here. I look forward to coming.”
“Thank you so much for sponsoring these classes around our state for those of us over 60! What a gift!”
”I enrolled because I wanted to spark my creative side, long dormant and maybe even dead! I now have the desire to document noteworthy events in my life, passing on a priceless gift to my children and grandchildren.”
Arts programming like this depends on many factors including library interest, patron interest, funding and available/interested artists. We will post more information here as we assess the possibilities for the next step in this program.
