2009 Art and Change Grant – $2,500

Barbara will write and perform a multimedia story of the struggles she and her 85-year-old mother are facing to combat the social, emotional, and health problems that arise with the coming of age in Philadelphia. The realization of this story through performance will give a voice to African American mothers and daughters, providing a foundation to build strategies and push for nursing home alternatives that support families. These interactive presentations will use intimate non-traditional mediums to provide an independent point of view on senior care. Unfiltered by mass media and presented to the hearts of real families overcoming the transitions with their elders, Barbara will inspire a stronger senior care advocacy movement.
