We are pleased to share that the Baring Foundation (UK) and Kaapeli in Finland are piloting a new informal and virtual network for international creative ageing (iCAN).

iCAN is open to anyone, anywhere in the world, with an interest in arts and culture for older people (creative ageing), including but not limited to:

  • arts organisations
  • artists and practitioners
  • social care practitioners
  • care/residential/senior home staff
  • researchers
  • local and national policy-makers

iCAN will host an online meeting with speakers from different countries twice a year. Meetings will be in English.

If you’d like to be invited to the meetings and receive ad-hoc e-newsletters from iCAN, you can sign up here.
