Lives Well Lived Project
|
|
Senior Planet participants and students from Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo will be matched to collaborate in a three-part series. During these meetings, the students and Senior Planet participants will interview each other, using the same interview questions used in Lives Well Lived, as well as any other questions the pairs want to use. The interviews will be recorded, so students can turn these sessions into a “Life Memoir” that will be given to Senior Planet participants at the end of the project.
In our first session on 1/18/23 from 3:15pm – 4:45pm MST, you will have an opportunity to ask Sky Bergman questions about her film before beginning this project.
