IN-PERSON Portraits of Joy Photo Show - Celebration of an Intergenerational Photo Project

Please stop into the Aging Resource to view the "Portraits of Joy" created in collaboration with the Aging Resource Center at Dartmouth Health and the Studio Art Department at Dartmouth College. 

This intergenerational project honors the individuality, creativity, and lived experiences of maturing and older adults in our community.

Participants were invited to reflect on what brings them joy and to select a meaningful item that represents a part of their story. Through thoughtful conversations with Dartmouth students, these personal objects became gateways to memory, identity, and connection. 

Each participant then posed for a professional portrait—dressed in a way that reflects how they wish to be seen—and photographed alongside the item that holds significance in their life.

This exhibit celebrates aging as a vibrant, expressive, and deeply human experience. Together, these portraits form a visual tapestry of joy, resilience, and the diverse community we are proud to serve.

Registration is encouraged. Refreshments will be served
