Exhibition

Culture Box Live is a multi-media and multi-sensory exhibition showcasing the importance of creativity for dementia care.

Culture Box Live is an exhibition based on the research findings and artist commissions from an pandemic-responsive arts and dementia project. The exhibition is funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council and supported by our project partners.
