Dryad

Artist: Diana Kreider

Location (2021): YWCA Women’s Empowerment Center

Community Leader: Michele Dane

Diana Kreider (artist) is an ovarian cancer survivor who was inspired by tales of Dryads living in trees. The mixed media piece represents a totem of powerful womanhood, rooted to the earth. A pool at the top is for reflection of what the artist has experienced with the disease and the butterflies represent the freedom to discover what’s ahead.

Michele Dane (community leader), with 30 years of healthcare planning experience, is the director of marketing, communications, and business development at Genesis Health Systems. (Created in 2019)
