Celebrating the voices of our community, we’re thrilled to announce the opening of our intergenerational art exhibition at Weston Museum: A Calling.
Intergenerational connections benefit us all. Creating connections that unite, and not divide, us is essential in creating stronger communities, combating loneliness, and addressing ageism.
Alive, through our STANd (Strength Together Age Network development) project, have partnered with artist Ramona Eve to create A Calling: an exhibit that spotlights the voices of our community, expressing their passions through the ages. Promoting a real sense of togetherness, the installation features input from local older people, sharing their interests and encouraging others to learn new things and reignite past passions.
Engaging in meaningful activity for older people, particularly those living with dementia, has many health benefits. Enjoying hobbies and interests later in life can improve physical health and aid in promoting positive mental health and wellbeing. And it’s by taking part in these hobbies together, that we can really promote a sense of community across the ages.
We hope you enjoy hearing older and younger people raise their voices to express their passions through the generations.
A Calling
Open Until 8 October 2025
Weston Museum, Burlington St, Weston-super-Mare BS23 1PR
