Belong Where You Find Yourself Film Screenings

Please join us for a screening of Belong Where You Find Yourself, a film documenting the work and experiences of those involved in a community-engaged art project that supported artists living with dementia and their care partners.

From January 2022 – May 2023, lead Artists Alana Moore and Amber Phelps Bondaroff worked closely with a community of 12 artists from Yorkton and surrounding areas whose lives have been impacted by dementia. In this hour-long documentary, filmmaker Adrienne (Sunny) Adams weaves documentation of the artworks created with personal stories and experiences of the artists involved.

Participating Artists in the BWYFY Project include: 
Elaine Berard & Herb Elder; Bonnie & Leon Jones; Merle & Dean Wiley;  Amanda Babey & Verna Off; Pat & Ron Walton; and Twila Napoleoni & Jeanette Haberstock.

Lead artists Alana Moore, and Amber Phelps Bondaroff, and filmmaker Adrienne Adams will be in attendance for a brief Q&A after the film.
