@ArtsEmergency @BigGive At 74 I've have never demonized young people. It would never occur to me to do so. And I'm not asleep, I'm creating more art than I ever have. So your little poster is both ignorant and ageist.
I totally support @ArtsEmergency but as someone who is over 50 I can’t help but object to this line: ‘the tedious slumber of ageing’. I mean, really? Many of us (like me) didn’t get published until we left the ‘holy grail’ of youth behind. And ageism is everywhere in the arts.
