Creativity! The Muse, The Angel, and The Duende

Creative inspiration is found everywhere. Come and learn what inspires a diverse list of local artists working in a range of disciplines at an event hosted in the inspiring setting of the Northwest Museum of Arts and Culture, and moderated by Spokane-based Washington State Poet Laureate Tod Marshall, unmistakably a creative in his own right. Participating in the discussion are painter Mel McCuddin, printmaker Mary Farrell, writer Shawn Vestal and musicians Liz Rognes, Himes Alexander and Matt Slater. During the panel, Marshall offers prompts like “Does art come from within, or from without?” and “What is inspiration?” There’s a no-host beer and wine reception at this event from Humanities Washington and the Washington State Arts Commission. Go get inspired.
