PANEL DISCUSSION: WHAT, WITHOUT MEMORY, AM I?

The Utah Commission on Aging engages with the community in many ways; one of which is the Music and Memory Utah Coalition. "What, without memory, am I?" was a panel discussion of stories of dementia and the power of music that followed a screening of "Alive Inside" at SLAC on September 28, 2015. It featured Geralyn White Dreyfous, Ellen Silver, Mary Ellen Geist, Gerda Saunders, and Anne E. Palmer. It was presented by SLAC and the Utah Coalition for Music & Memory.
