"The Power of New" Creativity in the Arts Workshop

The Power of New
Presented by Composer-in-Residence A. Paul Johnson

What happens when we choose curiosity over routine? When we embrace possibility instead of staying within familiar boundaries? In The Power of New, award-winning composer, author, educator, and Bryn Du Mansion's first Composer-in-Residence, A. Paul Johnson, explores how new ideas can transform the way we create, collaborate, and live.

Drawing from his experiences as a composer whose work has been performed around the world, Johnson shares stories from his creative journey and examines the role innovation plays in both the arts and everyday life. Through engaging discussion, musical examples, and thought-provoking insights, he demonstrates how stepping beyond conventional thinking can lead to unexpected discoveries and meaningful growth.

Whether you're an artist, entrepreneur, educator, student, or simply someone looking for fresh inspiration, this program offers practical and encouraging perspectives on creativity, problem-solving, and embracing change. Attendees will leave with a renewed appreciation for the creative process and a deeper understanding of how "the new" can become a powerful catalyst for personal and professional success.
