Join Olympic gold medalist and printmaker Deb Armstrong for an intimate artist talk and guided tour of her exhibition Changing Lenses. Deb shares the unexpected journey from elite ski racing to visual art, exploring how the concept of “changing lenses” — a tool for clarity on the mountain — became a powerful metaphor in her creative life.

Hear about the challenges of beginning from scratch, the discipline and spontaneity that connect sport and art, and the process behind translating iconic mountains into print. This conversation offers insight, inspiration, and an honest look at growth, perseverance, and creative courage.
