| Abstract | Creative outputs engage the public and can be used to share research. This paper reports on public engagement activities that were part of the research project Dementia and Imagination (D&I). We found that artwork and creative activities effectively engaged a range of audiences and challenged negative ideas about dementia. For the project team, public engagement developed relationships with collaborators and connected the research to different community settings, influencing future programmes of work. Further work could explore public engagement in diverse settings to assess which approaches are effective in maximising research value and wider community benefit. © 2019, © 2019 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group. |
Using art for public engagement: reflections on the Dementia and Imagination project. Muddle St the Green Man festival Carol Hanson was one of the research artists attached to D&I. She worked closely with the team from North Wales where many of the participants were in the earlier stages of dementia. The impact of the public engagement events Although the public engagement events were not part of formal research ad-hoc feedback was sought for each. Visitors to the Imagination Caf events were invited to leave feedback via visitor books and paper-based forms. For the D&I project utilising art both within the research and as a means of communica- tion encouraged people to engage visually and interactively with the project.
