Using an arts-based research methodology called Visual Voices, which involves art activities and group discussions, the team worked with six female residents from the Park Danforth senior living community in Portland to investigate the topics of perception, identity, and aging.
The project was funded by a mini-grant from ³Ô¹Ï±¬ÁÏ’s .
