About the creator

Delana Flowers

Delana Flowers

Delana Flowers is a multi-talented creative who loves using art to inspire, teach, and uplift. She is a teaching artist, vocalist, writer, and actress in a category of her own. Her energy and eclecticism fill every space of any room as she brings her art from her heart and soul to yours. Miss Flowers has been seen teaching in classrooms all over the city for Pittsburgh Festival Opera, Pittsburgh Cultural Trust, Hope Academy, and Carnegie Libraries. When she’s not teaching, she’s performing, reading, writing or spending quality time with family and friends. Delana is grateful to God for the opportunities He has given her to add her gifts to the countless others He has placed in the earth. Wherever possible, Delana lives for those magic moments only art brings as it connects people in such profound ways.
