Location
Seoul 50 Plus Western Campus; MMCA, Seoul

In partnership with the Baring Foundation and Korea Arts & Culture Education Service, Creative Ageing Conference 2017 provides a platform where we can build bridges for exchange of knowledge, networks and collaboration in order to reflect on the role of arts within the fast-ageing societies of the UK and Korea.

The full day conference, followed by workshops and a research visit, aims to bring both policy makers and artists and art professionals together to examine the critical role of the arts to create positive social change and to share best creative practices between the two countries. It also aims to stimulate discussions on common challenges, such as intergenerational and interdisciplinary practices, professional capacity building opportunities, and the arts and its contribution to the health sector.
