Connections among Age, Occupation, and Environment in an Intergenerational Center for Arts and Wellness

This study will illustrate how place is created for older adults through connections among aging, environment, and occupation. I will use a narrative approach to examine how community-based organizational leaders relate stories of anticipated meaningful relationships among aging, environment, and occupation in a community-based Intergenerational Center for Arts and Wellness. Additionally, I will explore how older adults narrate their meaningful occupational engagement among these environmental contexts. Overall, I will assess the connections between community-based organizational leaders' related stories of how aging, environment, and occupation would be situated and older adults' narrated accounts of their occupational engagement among the Center's environmental contexts.
