Creative
expeditions for
mind, heart and
memory.
1 Kind Day
We are 1 Kind Day.
We’re social workers and creative practitioners, connecting meaningful lives with emerging technology.
We facilitate workshops for elders and people living with dementia.
Creative possibilities can heal personal stories, strengthen relationships, and create new horizons challenging traditional models of community care.
Future; present.
Redefining moments.
Our participants lead their own session goals and artistic outcomes. No artistic experience or tactile ability is needed. Just a quiet room,
a chair and a story.
Driven by research.
Our work is informed by current gerontology and social work research that amplifies the benefits of integrating both arts-based creative play and co-design practices into holistic elder and dementia care.
Collective imagining.
Our practice encourages embodied selfhood, creative equity and dignity allowing our participants freedom to experiment and participate creatively with their communities.
Who are we?
Our practitioners have a unique field of experience across social work, counselling and arts-based digital media practice, working with individuals, families and non-for-profit organisations in Melbourne and abroad.
Our team are from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds. We care about creative equity and de-colonising traditional models of elder and dementia care.
