Emerging Artist Panel

Earlier this winter, SPNN hosted a series of artist panels: this episode is the first in that series.  For this panel, three early-career artists joined us to talk about their work so far and where they're going next. This panel is also available as a video. 

Nia Navarro is a community organizer and emerging filmmaker, and they focus their work on queer, Black, and working class stories. Kehinde Olumide Famule is a Nigerian-American filmmaker and photographer telling stories about groups and individuals who are making positive change in their communities. Pa Houa Xiong is a graphic designer looking to inspire curiosity and joy through her art.
