Harvest
A number of rural people have asked if we could bring Embolden to their community. We would love to. The Harvest concept is about visiting rural communities and working on innovative and engaging (fun) projects that challenge ageism and build respect for older people. The projects engage local communities and build community capacity. Narrative and art based approaches produce 'artefacts' (photographs, films, networks) that can be showcased in local communities and shared at the Embolden Festival.
