Turning Adversity into Art
Darlyn Finch Kuhn will illustrate that it’s the difficult moments in life that shape our character, become fuel for self-expression, and ultimately inspire artistic expression in others. Sharing excerpts from her poetry and prose, Kuhn will show the benefits of paying close attention to pain, sharing the universal through the specific, and being vulnerable enough to collaborate with others through ekphrastic art.
