Merry Petroski ADC, CDP, who has been serving seniors and their families for 15+ years, is currently flipping the script on ageist assumptions and supporting creativity for adults 55+ in her role as project manager of Akron Art Museum’s popular workshop series the Creative Aging Institute.
The vision of the Creative Aging Institute is to shine a light on ageism, foster connections through artistic collaboration, support creativity in its participants and celebrate aging as a time of opportunity and adventure rather than shame.
