Continuing Creativity
Free art classes for adults 65+.
Creative Action supports lifelong learning and creativity through arts-based classes for adults ages 65+, which growing research shows promotes social, physical, and cognitive health among older adults. Participants engage in creative writing, storytelling, visual art, creative movement, and community-building activities, culminating in a final sharing for friends and family at the end of each session.
“To me this class means an opportunity to exercise my creativity, an environment to meet new people and hear their life stories, and a chance to work with young teaching artists and participate in their ideas.”
-Cynthia Herbert
Continuing Creativity members are encouraged to learn a new skill or explore an artistic field they’ve always wanted to try. Memories and lived experience are unlocked and honored through the creative process.
We deliver art projects and experiences free of charge to interested individuals age 65+.
This project is supported in part by the Cultural Arts Division of the City of Austin Economic Development Department and the Texas Commission on the Arts.
