    Art: From The Self, Then Outward

    Do you ever feel like art is pretentious? Like when you go to a museum and look at a lot of art that doesn’t really “make sense“ to you and you just think to yourself, “it’s cool I guess”? Or have you ever gone to a ballet or an opera, or even listened to a symphony that you just didn’t “understand” and you fear that you missed the point? If so, don't worry, you are not alone. In this episode, let's think about art through a different, more flexible lens.

    Out of Sight, Out of Mind

    It seems that so many issues have come out of the woodwork over the last year. Some were new, others, not so much. No matter what the issues are, it seems that we have choices regarding how we respond to these issues, and the information within them. We can either turn a blind eye and say “everything was working fine before this issue was brought to light, so why do anything about it?” or we can confront the issues head on by acknowledging their complexity and magnitude, and ultimately learning and understanding what kind of change is possible. Tune in this week to “out of sight, out of mind” to ponder our responsibilities to self and society while confronting new or resurgent issues in this crazy time. Also, mark your calendars for This Friday, the final episode in my series with Tony Award winning choreographer Andy Blankenbuehler will finally release! Be sure to spread the word, you and your friends won’t want to miss it.

    Part 1: Andy's Story

    To understand and connect with an artist, we must first understand the processes and experiences that helped shape their artistic and creative identity. In this sense, I felt that there would be no better way to get to know Andy than to hear his story first hand. “Andy’s Story” is just that. Tune in to get a sense of the processes, people, and experiences that helped Andy find himself as an artist, dancer, choreographer, and story teller. If you like this episode, please consider sharing it with at least one friend. Over the next couple of weeks, I will release the following episodes of this series, so make sure you subscribe to this podcast so that you don’t miss an episode. Please enjoy.

    Connecting to Culture with Okurut George

    Many of us know that the arts can be used to convey ideas, influence public opinion, and empower individuals. But what can be said about the power of art to inspire young minds and initiate the process of rebuilding communities affected by war, and the traumas that come with it? My guest today is Okurut George, a yoga, meditation, and dance instructor who is taking his knowledge and passions for dance, mental and physical health, as well as fitness across Africa to teach communities of children how to connect with their minds and bodies, and the beauty of being able to express one’s self through dance and movement. Okurut’s story is truly fascinating, and offers and intriguing perspective into the powers and importance of art and mental wellbeing. Please enjoy.
