An online art exhibition is set to launch on World Alzheimer's Day, organized by SA Good News. The exhibition aims to raise awareness about Alzheimer's disease through visual art, showcasing works that explore themes of memory, identity, and care. The initiative leverages digital platforms to reach a broad audience and engage communities in South Africa and beyond.
This matters because it uses art as a tool for social impact, connecting the visual arts with public health advocacy. By aligning with a global awareness day, the exhibition highlights how creative expression can foster empathy and understanding around neurological conditions, while also supporting the visibility of South African artists and good-news storytelling.
