Featured Artists: The direct[message] Community Consultants
The Editorial Team — January 2024
Direct[message], a five-year project to increase access to artistic experience for older adults, was guided by a panel of older adult community consultants from the project cities of Guelph, Hamilton, and London.
In this early video collaboration that became the first episode of direct[message] Community Stories, consultants discuss what they like to be called and how the words that programs, events, and organizations use to reach out to them has an impact.
Thank you Maggie Perquin, Sheila O’Reilly, Suad Badri, Wilimina McGrimmond, Richard Claus, and Kathy Smith for your leadership and creativity throughout the project.
