Creative Aging - Think 360 Arts for Learning

Established in 2016, the Creative Aging program seeks to improve the lives of older adults through arts education. We do this by promoting the inclusion of quality arts programs in communities that serve older adults; preparing teaching artists to work with older adults; and fostering lifelong learning within our communities. The Creative Aging program uses arts as an effective vehicle to help improve the health and well-being of older adults throughout Colorado.
