TimeSlips

Now through April 30, patrons are encouraged to visit the Archives Gallery on the third floor in the east wing of the Golda Meir Library to view TimeSlips, the spring 2026 Archives exhibit. The display highlights the Time Slips Project, a series of creative storytelling workshops for people with Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias led by UWM English Professor Dr. Anne Basting from 1998-1999 while she was a fellow at the UWM Center for 21st Century Studies. Basting collaborated with UWM Film Professor Dick Blau and artist Beth Thielen to produce Time Slips programming for wider audiences. Participants interact with images and other prompts to create stories together, which have been adapted into plays, exhibits, and other output. Curated by Archives Intern Megan Moeller, the TimeSlips exhibits features photographs and other materials from the Time Slips Project.
