I KNOW A MAN … ASHLEY BRYAN – Limited Free Tickets Available
He served in an all-Black battalion in WWII and experienced the racism of being segregated from the rest of the Army as well as experiencing the carnage of D-Day. As a result he dedicated his life to creating beauty and joy, spreading love and awe through his art making. He’s a poet/illustrator of over 60 children’s books (30 by Simon & Schuster), makes magical puppets and sea glass windows from found objects inspired by his African heritage. Ashley lived on the remote Cranberry Islands, Maine and has been using art his entire life to celebrate joy, mediate the darkness of war and racism, explore the mysteries of faith, and create loving community. His life story and the art he makes from this wellspring of experience is an inspiration to people of all ages.
