Our approach
More than putting generations in the same room.
Painting, technology and storytelling are where we start. What we design is the experience around them, so participants have a real reason to work together, listen and learn from one another.
Create together
Participants make one piece as a team, not side by side.
Learn from one another
Skills and knowledge move in both directions.
Exchange stories
Structured prompts make it easy to share, ask and listen.
Build relationships
Consistent groups give connections time to grow.
Contribute to a shared outcome
A finished artwork, a recorded story or a new skill.
Develop confidence
Youth practise leadership. Older adults lead with expertise.
