Cancer survivors share their art

Both healing and enlightening, creative expression enhances one's ability to cope with illness and treatment. Under the watchful eyes of Carole McNamee, research professor in human development in the College of Liberal Arts and Human Sciences at Virginia Tech, an unusual offering of art entitled "Finding the Creative Fire: The Experience of Cancer," opens today, Jan. 24 and lasts until Feb. 16, at the Armory Gallery in downtown Blacksburg.
