The main objective of this video and the art
exhibition is to give a voice to people living with dementia and educate the
public to understand how creative expression can turn disabilities into
opportunities. The exhibition promotes the right to be heard and to be
valued. The permanent collection of the Society includes artworks that were
produced in art sessions and in creative expression programs. Dr. Dalia
Gottlieb-Tanaka started to collect the art as a doctoral student and
continued collecting through her workshops in North America and in Israel
and through invitations to view works in other facilities. The artsworks
were donated with permission by caregivers and by creative expression
facilitators who are eager to exhibit and promote the seniors’ work.
