Art in the Library at Swiss Cottage Central Library
21 August – 16 October
Join our FREE 9 week programme for people with early-stage dementia or mild cognitive impairment and their companions.
In Art & Storytelling with Ben Jenner, we will cast ourselves as explorers tasked with
discovering Swiss Cottage Library as if it were an unknown planet. Beginning with the
shared reading of literature, we will use sensory devices (ears, eyes, noses, mouths and hands) to gather information about the space, using drawing, painting, handwriting, typing, and photography.
