Creativity is not a luxury good.

Welcome. I’m Alana Florence. If you’re here and see this, just know my site is not meant to be live yet. I bought the domain and had lofty ambitions!

As for me, I write and research and advocate and generally bestow an irritating amount of passion on everything I lay eyes on. You could say I work at the intersection of arts education, bibliotherapy, and cultural commentary, centered on my life’s premise, which is the healing power of the arts. I strongly believe my purpose is to proliferate the same healing and sense of purpose I’ve always found in all forms of the arts. I believe in the power of creativity for everyone at any stage of life.
