The Arts and Health: Healthy Aging through the Arts project focused on a community-engaged approach in a Canadian context.
The two key institutional partners were Vancouver Coastal Health (through the SMART Fund) and the Vancouver Board of Parks and Recreation.
They had interests in learning how existing knowledge can be supplemented to improve health promotion services to seniors and people living with chronic conditions in the local health region and applying the learnings of the project to the expansion of meaningful programming for seniors served by Vancouver-area community centres.
