The Power of Creative Storytelling with TimeSlips

MacArthur Fellow Anne Basting has transformed the way we think about aging, memory, and care. As founder of the organizationTimeSlips, she has pioneered creative storytelling techniques that invite older adults—including those experiencing dementia—into meaningful moments of connection and imagination. In this session, Basting will share how simple acts of creativity can deepen relationships, spark joy, and reframe how communities engage with elders. Join her to discover how TimeSlips is reshaping narratives around aging and opening new possibilities for care, art, and human connection.
