There is a fountain of youth
it is your mind,
your talents, 
the creativity you bring to your life
and the lives of people you love.
When you learn to tap this source,
you will truly have defeated age.
~ Sophia Loren

Creativity and Mentoring

Creative use of our talents can be our fountain of youth.  If we develop our art with age peers or with younger generations, we can increase our focus and productivity. We also thereby contribute to social connections and sometimes to the broader community.  Mentoring one on one or within a group is mutually supportive and builds upon our life experiences as older adults.  Creative activity within a group or through intergenerational mentoring can lead us to educational and advocacy activities built upon our individual and group strengths.
