and leading the end of stigma and the tragedy narrative”
Taking It to the Streets
Around the world, millions of people are living with and impacted by dementia.
Yet dementia continues to be surrounded by a fear-, shame- and stigma-filled “cone of silence”
that impacts us all.
Together, we can, we must and we will shatter the silence about dementia.

Recognizing the power of the arts for social change, Reimagining Dementia: A Creative Coalition for Justice teamed up with Simon Law to create an original song, “Let’s Reimagine” as part of a global campaign.

Feature
Reimagining Dementia Calgary Initiative
are inviting people living with dementia and their family, friends, and care partners to share stories, photos, or creative expressions that reflect everyday life. While dementia is often talked about in terms of loss and decline, we know there are also stories of strength, connection, humour, hope, and possibility that deserve to be seen and heard.
