The Geezer Gallery

We are a registered not-for-profit organization that will establish a facility that showcases talented senior artists as a means of partially supporting the development of local senior artistic talent, and the creation and implementation of programs of art and programs of art therapy aimed at the local senior community of the greater Portland area. We envision a future where seniors redefine themselves as valuable contributors; a time when seniors view themselves as vital role models, worthy of acceptance and purpose. We envision a future where physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual health and vitality are achieved through creative artistic expression; where seniors are celebrated for their unique life experiences, contributions, and wisdom. We imagine a future where the life stories of the older generation bring insight, epiphanies, laughter, joy, and healing to all generations. We celebrate a future where attaining elder-hood is viewed as a process of positive changes and a realm of new possibilities.
