Connecting creative aging research with context and practice: Commentary on “Creativity, aging, context and culture: Reimagining creativity in everyday life in older adults”

This commentary on Adams-Price and Morse’s article “Creativity, aging, context and culture: Reimagining creativity in everyday life in older adults” emphasizes extensions on the topic of creative aging into social context, new analytic lenses, and connections to public practice and programming around creative aging. We suggest directions and data sets for future inquiry and reflect on broadening conceptions of creativity to expand past the art to match older adults’ perceptions of creativity as being more than only artistic in nature.
