Friendship House is an Adult Daycare located in Alexandria, LA near Rapides Regional Medical Center.  We will be partnering with Friendship House in 2008-2009 to create the Legacy Project, a photo study of patients with Dementia and Alzheimers.  Resident Artist, Sherry McDonald will be in charge of this project which will culminate in an event and photo exhibit in November, 2009.  This project is funded by a grant from Wal Mart and a grant from the Louisiana Division of the Arts through their Decentralized Arts Program.
