10/27/22: Film Screening: I KNOW A MAN … ASHLEY BRYAN
7:00pm, Emery Performance Space
Free and open to the public
The documentary film, I KNOW A MAN … ASHLEY BRYAN, directed by Richard Kane, is a story about a 90+ year-old artist who skips and jumps in his heart like a child, yet is a spiritually deep creative genius and poet/illustrator of 50 children’s books, maker of magical puppets and sea glass windows from found objects inspired by his African heritage. Ashley lived on the remote Cranberry Islands, Maine until his death at 98 years old in February 2022. He had 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.
