B.R.I.D.G.E. (Building Relationships through Intergenerational Dialogue, Growth, and Expression)
About the Program
B.R.I.D.G.E. (Building Relationships through Intergenerational Dialogue, Growth, and Expression) is a free, intergenerational arts program funded by the Westminster College Foundation and delivered by the London Arts Council in partnership with the London Public Library.
Professional artist-educators, supported by volunteers, will deliver 70 workshops across seven London Public Library locations. Participants will explore visual arts, drama, dance, music, digital media, and ceramics while building creativity, confidence, and social connections.
By combining arts participation with mentorship and intergenerational collaboration, B.R.I.D.G.E. enhances the well-being of seniors, provides meaningful professional development opportunities for emerging artists, and strengthens community connections across generations. The program is expected to engage at least 700 senior participants while fostering lasting relationships, leadership development, and community resilience.
