On November 10, 2025, The Ghostlight Stage Company continues its 25/26 Shining a Light Workshop and Lecture Series with Creating Art from a Personal Story, led by board member and nationally recognized artist, Michael Thompson, at Cincinnati Playhouse in the Park. This pay-what-you-can workshop, offered in person and virtually, will guide participants through the process of developing visual storytelling rooted in personal experience. Attendees will explore vulnerability, concept development, and practical tools for idea generation, leaving with a project prompt and a deeper understanding of how individual narratives connect to larger ecosystems.
About the speaker: Michael Thompson is an artist, speaker, and entrepreneur. His work focuses on human ecology and nuance, utilizing interdisciplinary mediums to build his creative ecosystem. Michael views the arts as a community catalyst, rethinking the roles that visual communication plays in the modern world. Painting, installation, and writing are at the forefront of his practice as he develops woven and multi-experiential works of art. His work blends the surreal and mundane, challenging social narratives while drawing the viewer in as an active participant in a visual narrative.
