The Stories of Childhood project is part of the World and Eye outreach program, Telling Tales, in which older adults collaborate with artists of all ages to create story-based art exhibits.
​

Stories of Childhood is an intergenerational collaboration between:
  • a group of senior storytellers (aged 65+)
  • a group of South Florida artists (all ages)
  • and a group of children (aged 7-12)

In this project, the storytellers recorded true, personal stories about their own childhoods. The recordings were then played to a group of local artists who translated the stories into artwork. Some of the stories were also played to a group of children (aged 7-12) who made shadow puppets to accompany the stories.

The art, puppets, and stories were exhibited at the World & Eye Arts Center during the FAT Village Art Walks.


Featuring work by: 
Jensin Holmgren, Whitney Leon, Lily Mazurek, Jill Morris, Meghan Morris, Alexandra Neira, Anabel Peicher, Liliana Rivera, Guillermo Santiago, Judith Schwab, Sarah Walker, Helen Reynolds, and Jen Walls.
