Join us as we welcome bestselling author, photographer, and storyteller Arielle Lokadóttir for an evening of art, myth, and adventure inspired by her travels in the far north. From solo road trips through Iceland to photographing Arctic foxes in the wild, Arielle shares stories from her recent residency near the Arctic Circle—where weather, wildlife, and wonder shaped both her work and her worldview.

Blending personal narrative, Nordic folklore, and striking visuals, this talk explores the deep connections between grief and growth, art and nature, and the courage it takes to forge an unconventional creative life. Arielle’s journey reminds us that healing can happen in wild places—and that sometimes, the path forward begins far outside our comfort zone.
