This program invites seniors to explore Pulitzer Prize-winning poetry and music through a creative, hands-on art workshop led by artist and musician Antonia Lucas-Ruppert. Participants will reflect on powerful works of music utilizing a playlist curated by Ruppert. Using these works as inspiration, participants will create their own original music translating ideas, emotions, and their own stories while considering how Pulitzer Prize-winning artists connect to their own lives and experiences. Chicago-born Antonia Ruppert is an artist, singer-songwriter and educator who has been painting for over 30 years. Growing up in Chicago’s Austin community, she creates paintings that connect people and tell a story. The oldest of six siblings, with no funds to purchase art supplies, she recalls drawing on discarded paper inserts from her Mom’s stockings. These humble beginnings have been instrumental in inspiring hundreds of paintings and drawings, where hope, faith and community are central. Ruppert, an M.F.A. graduate of Clark University in Massachusetts, a graduate Loyola University Chicago — was a 2025 featured panelist for the Healing Arts conference at the UNGA, NYC, the 2023 honoree of the Peggy A. Montes Unsung Heroine Award for Cook County, IL, 2022 Artist in Residence for the Addison Public Library and the 2021 Invest South/West Artist in Residence for Chicago’s Austin community.
