Ruth Asawa, Untitled (BMC, 57, Curved Lines) c. 1946-49, Ink on paper.

Wednesday, November 13th, 2024 from 5:00 – 7:00 PM at the Alzheimer Society of Toronto Head Office located at 20 Eglinton Ave W, 16th Floor.
Mid-Town Social focuses on social wellness for people with Dementia and their care partners. This month we will collaborate with Jano Cortijo, an established arts educator. We will enjoy a meditative drawing and collaging program together inspired by the work of Ruth Asawa, a prolific artist who made drawing a regular ritual often depicting her personal, immediate surroundings. Using line, shape and colour in ingenious and unexpected ways, Asawa crafted an extensive body of work that comfortably and masterfully exists between abstraction and figuration.
We will look at and discuss some of her drawings and mixed media pieces and then create our own compositions.
Jano Cortijo is a gay, immigrant, bilingual arts educator whose work finds him engaging audiences of various ages, abilities, and backgrounds in museums, classrooms, community centers, or computer screens. Jano encourages critical discussion while connecting the participants’ individual histories and stories with the art and art makers.

This program is appropriate for people living with mild to moderate dementia and their carepartners.
