Coffs Harbour musician and creative ageing practitioner Giri Mazzella delivered ‘Stories in Nature’ a series of guided interactive creative playshops for senior citizens (inclusive of alzheimers impacted) and carers to explore memory, origins and family stories through song, music and writing exercises. The workshops were staged in a natural environment at the Coffs Botanic Gardens. Participants received thought-provoking questions to discuss with their partners while walking or sitting in nature. Together they recorded reflections and encouraged to share these through creative techniques.
