“From beauty beyond the binary to beauty that comes only with age, and from beauty found through brokenness to the beauty of making one’s self a work of art, we’ll explore a variety of diverse expressions of beauty, inspiring ourselves and one another for the work of today and all the days ahead,” said IWC Artistic Director Meagan Johnson.
