Production house for the elderly and stories

By 28-07-2017

ONE WEEK ABOUT Social Design by curator Social label

A special collaboration between Wintertuin and Vitalis Zorggroep. The production house initiates meetings between makers and the elderly; it offers talent development programs for people over 80 and provides care home residents a stage for their stories. You might call The Verhalenhuis (Stories Home) a ‘talent development program for those over 80’. This initiative cooperates with talented writers and manages to put the qualities and talents of older people to work in a beautiful way. And this does not only creates a feeling of self-fulfillment for the elderly but it also supplies extraordinary stories for everyone.
