Dementia Engaged & Empowered Derry & Strabane (DEEDS) Exhibition.
The aim of the Treasured Possessions project was to provide a high-quality artistic experience to those living with dementia, to make a link to the community through our museum service and to provide an exhibition platform to present the outcomes in both Derry and Strabane. All DEEDS groups visited the Tower Museum to look at local artefacts, to reminisce and connect these memories to their own stories. You are encouraged to look at the individual and group portraits to look beyond their dementia diagnosis and see the person. Like us all, each person has their life story to tell, listen to the recorded personal stories -each offering a short glimpse into a moment in time. The project is funded by the Arts Council for Northern Ireland and supported by the Tower Museum and Millennium Forum within Derry & Strabane District Council.
