Overcoming Adversity: The Power of Resilience in Art and Life
Exclusive online event for the Federation of Canadian Artists, Wednesday, January 14, 2026.
Join SFCA artist Lasha Barbosa (Lasha Fine Art) as she shares her remarkable journey: from non-artist to rare brain tumor diagnosis, losing everything, high-risk surgery, relearning to walk and talk, discovering art therapy, and rising six years later to become an accomplished Signature Member of the Federation of Canadian Artists.
A raw, inspiring story of how creativity turned survival into triumph, and how resilience can rewrite any life. Come be reminded that it's never too late to become who you were meant to be.
FCA members only - mark your calendars!
Entire presentation is conducted in ASL, with the help of an English interpreter; as well as, a speech app so everyone can understand and follow along.
