Our Four Core Values by Jim Corcoran |
| The Aging Artfully Initiative (AAI) is a collaborative group of community leaders and elder activists in Portland, Oregon. Here Jim Corcoran of AAI talks about the four core values or promises of the organization. They are excellent examples for building an interdependent community. "We all need each other." AAI was formed by Jim with the help of Gary Marschke in 2008. We are forming a multi-generational community of caring people focused on the creative arts and aging artfully. AAI will have a physical, mixed use residential location, in addition to a network of friends and allies who provide services to each other and the wider community.Seminars, workshops, events, and services, provided by our expert allies, will strengthen the cultural and financial resources that are essential to all artists, musicians and creatives.
