LIVING Well With Dementia Video

The PiDC Alliance Presents
LIVING Well with Dementia

Created in partnership with the Partnerships in Dementia Care Alliance Advisory Group of persons living with dementia and their family members, LIVING Well with Dementia speaks to what it means for persons with dementia and their care partners to live well with dementia.


We would like to acknowledge all those involved in making the video, including:

  • The PiDC Alliance Advisory Group.

The Re-imagining Dementia through the Arts Artwork is now viewable on our website.

In this arts and community-based research project we brought persons with dementia, family members, visual and performance artists, and researchers together in a one-day workshop to explore the implications of the tragedy discourse for persons and families experiencing dementia and work with them to begin to create an alternative discourse.

Working collaboratively, eight visual and poetic expressions were created that reflect what persons with dementia want the world to know about them: despite loss and sadness they are supported by loving networks, embracing life, remaining active and engaged, breaking the silence, and transforming with new possibilities.
