Seniors Social: The Culture
Join us for our Seniors Social and ignite new connections. This engaging monthly workshop series for older adults fosters an environment to dive into meaningful conversations that are weaved with art exploration and creation. Engaging with art and expressing creativity enhances well-being, so join the conversation and let art be your guide!
Get a sneak peek of AGO’s exhibition The Culture: Hip Hop and Contemporary Art in the 21st Century exploring how contemporary artists, musicians, designers, and stylists tell the story of Hip Hop and its global impact on visual culture. Placing fashion, consumer marketing, music, videos, and objects in dialogue with paintings, sculpture, poetry, photography, and multi-media installations, The Culture sparks lively discussions about activism and identity. Following the virtual tour, we'll undertake a collaborative ‘rap,’ using prompts to write individual prose and poetic fragments. We’ll put these fragments together as a group in a spoken word presentation.
