Ep 5: Intergenerational Programming at the Libraries - Guests: Wendy Pender, Pearl Klein
Description
On the April episode of KiteTales, host Ali Alderman delves into the intergenerational nature of public libraries. Joining her on the episode is Wendy Pender, Older Adults Program Coordinator at the King County Library System. The two discuss how older adults play a vital and powerful role in every aspect of society today, as well as ageing and its relationship to play, growth, and curiosity.
The second guest, Pearl Klein, offers charming anecdotes and insightful commentary on her work as a teaching artist with SilverKite in library programs; she also closes the podcast with a meditative art activity.
Both Wendy and Pearl also share about their library experiences as the COVID-19 pandemic has unfolded.
KiteTales is produced by SilverKite Community Arts (www.silverkite.us) and hosted by Ali Alderman. Music by Ben Thornewell of the band Jukebox the Ghost.
