Our support of aging animals has become part of our aging experiences… Part one of this episode features Alice Wingwall, a photographer and film editor whose unique work is influenced through her creative engagement with her declining vision. She has continued to evolve her artwork with the help of her guide dogs. Her images tell the story of this relationship. Alice introduces our day of exploration.

Panelists include: Sherri Franklin, the Founder and CEO of Muttville Senior Dog Rescue; Evan Johnson, a theater maker, teaching artist and the Prana Director at Elder Ashram; Maddie Krasno, the Grants and Foundation Specialist for Woodstock Farm Sanctuary, who also shares insights about living with her emotional support animal, her dog, Millie; and Annelie Nilsson, a Clinical Nurse Specialist at Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital, who is incorporating robotic cats and dogs into the care of patients with dementia with the Acute Care for the Elderly team. During this hour of exploration & learning you will hear personal journeys, practical insights and an array of knowledge from our guests’ years of experience with the health benefits of the human-animal bond.
