Event date
Presentation notes and slides
Description
The Albany, Deptford, London (opens new window) on Monday June 11th 2012
The impetus for this conference came from feedback after last year's conference where delegates spoke of the need to showcase and develop high quality practice. Workshops will be led by leaders in the field: artists, performers, musicians, researchers, and people with dementia presenting dance, movement, poetry, singing, drama, film making, technology, along with gallery and walking tours, intergenerational work and much more. All workshops provide opportunities for active engagement and for some sessions, stamina is required!
