Mary Jean lives at Kingsley Retirement Home in Maple Grove, Oregon. She finds a box of red running shoes on her doorstep one morning and wonders who sent them. Little did she know her life was about to change in mysterious and meaningful ways. Friends are being carted off to Memory Care even though the day before they seemed fine. Mary Jean is visited by a mystery man who reminds her of her late husband. Together they solve the mystery and Mary Jean moves on to expand her world to include things we all want in life: caring relationships, spending time outdoors, art, music, and helping others. Mary Jean's Red Shoes is a creative commentary on how we could imagine the spaces we design for our elderly population.
