LAGUNA NIGUEL, CA, UNITED STATES, May 8, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Watermark Laguna Niguel is proud to announce Feeling Our Age, a groundbreaking art exhibition and book by nationally-recognized artist Kathleen Cosgrove. Featuring portraits and personal stories of 60 women over 60, the exhibition challenges outdated views on aging and celebrates the wisdom, resilience, and spirit of older generations.

The collection is an example of how Watermark Laguna Niguel, a senior retirement community, is committed to creating extraordinary environments where individuals thrive through wellness, enrichment, and purpose. “It’s an honor to bring the Feeling Our Age exhibition to Watermark Laguna Niguel,” said Kathleen Cosgrove. “These portraits and stories have transformed how people think about aging, including myself. I hope visitors leave inspired by the strength and beauty that come with every year lived.”

Among the women featured are former legislators, nurses, artists, and pilots, alongside essays in which each woman shares her journey addressing the challenges of growing older while expressing hope for the future. Their images, stories, and the accompanying coffee table book aim to redefine aging and fight age discrimination, which disproportionately affects women.

With the World Health Organization projecting one in six people will be over 60 by 2030, and studies showing more than half of women over 65 experience ageism in the workplace, the exhibition arrives at a crucial moment—turning awareness into action through the language of art.

“At Watermark, we see aging as renewal, purpose, and connection,” said Sundeep Jeste, Executive Director of Watermark Laguna Niguel. “This exhibition reflects our mission to honor every story and challenge aging stereotypes. It’s a conversation we’re proud to lead.”
