Evelyn Hinds
Founder — Arts Touching Hearts, Inc.
Evelyn Hinds believes she was inspired by art even before she was old enough to recognize it. It wasn’t until she was a seventeen-year-old that she discovered that she loved to act on the stage. Evelyn followed her chosen path to become a high school English teacher and graduated with honors but life’s circumstances propelled her onto different paths.
Throughout her life Evelyn was compelled to be always learning something new. Through her quest to find her purpose in life, she knew in her heart she was a teacher but searched for a creative way to teach that wasn’t the traditional school classroom setting. She volunteered to be a docent at an art museum because she loved to learn and be inspired by the art and pass that enthusiasm for art and beauty on to others. While at the museum she was given the opportunity to tell the story of one of the museum’s early art donors by using drama. As Evelyn says, “I discovered that I had a particular talent to portray old women!” The success of that opportunity lead her quickly to search for another opportunity to use her love for the stage at her church. The success of her first portrayal of her heroine, Corrie ten Boom, grew by word of mouth into a ministry. Now nearly twenty years later she continues her passion for evangelism through drama, storytelling, and writing.
