BLENDING LITERATURE AND DANCE

Blackfald’s author book launch to celebrate personal growth and resilience

Oct 8, 2024 | 12:27 PM

Community members are invited to a book launch and celebration for local author, speaker, and mental health advocate Trina Lee Kennedy.

Kennedy’s debut novel, From Trauma to Triumph and What Lies Between, draws from her personal journey of healing, trauma, and growth, striving to offer readers inspiration and tools for their own path to success.

The launch event is titled “Shining Bright: A Night of Inspiration of Dance” and will be held on Oct. 17 at 7 p.m. at the Red Deer Memorial Centre. Connie Jakab, five-time author, is slated as a guest speaker, and there will be a performance by Catalyst Dance Experience.

Tickets are $50 and include a copy of the novel. A portion of the proceeds will be donated to the Canadian Mental Health Association in Red Deer and Suicide Information and Education Services.
