Visionaries: A South Asian Arts and Ageing Counter Narrative (Executive Summary)

description

From the Executive Summary:

This piece of scoping work, commissioned from Arti Prashar OBE and Elizabeth Lynch MBE, is an important step for CADA’s development of an inclusive approach to creative ageing. This report celebrates the work of visionary people drawn from a diverse range of South Asian identities and experiences. It both records the experiences of individual older South Asian artists and provides a snapshot of recent projects by, with and for South Asian people in a range of contexts and settings. Within this report there is learning to share, not only about working with diaspora communities, but also how the holistic approach to outreach, arts and well-being could benefit practice with all communities.
