Abstract

Abstract Carolyn Adams-Price will lead off the symposium with a discussion of Kivnick’s impact on gerontology and the arts. Her various arts interests will be discussed, including her interests in choral and African music. Much of the talk will focus on the concept of vital involvement, why it was revolutionary, and how it connects to current research on positive gerontology, creativity, and adaptation in late life. Adams-Price will address in detail the benefits that participation in creative activities can impart to older adults, based on her own research on creative benefits, and will provide a framework for studying those benefits in the future.
