  • Staying Sane as an Artist: Keeping Your Creative Spirit Alive

    The Goodnow Library in Sudbury MA is holding a panel discussion titled "Staying Sane as an Artist: Keeping Your Creative Spirit Alive" Wednesday June 4, 2014.

    Nadine Kenney Johnstone wrote Nine Babies on Ice, a memoir about facing death while trying to conceive through In Vitro Fertilization.  Both baby and book are realities.

    Luke Bittel made a horrible movie called "Help Wanted".  Undaunted, he made Some Assembly Required: They Don't Teach You Failure in Film School, a documentary about the making of "Help Wanted".  It's doing very well.

    RISD professor Clara Lieu explores the themes of isolation and mental illness through drawing, painting, and sculpture.  Her book Learn, Create and Teach: A Guide to Building a Creative Life, has led countless artists through their dark nights of the soul.

    This is the kind of spirit that will be celebrated during the panel discussion.  Other artists include award-winning animator Steve Gentile and actor/director Donna Folan.
