Intergenerational Art Project
The past few years have been very isolating for many people, particularly those living alone. This intergenerational art project aims to reduce feelings of loneliness and social isolation by bringing people together to engage, while making art.
Aimed at Sydney’s multicultural communities the program’s been designed to foster quality relationships across the intergenerational divide.
Proudly Sponsored by
Community Engagement Partners
