This month's Mountain Talk takes listeners to the Grayson Art Gallery in Grayson, Kentucky, where Appalachian artists collaborated to raise money for the Eastern Kentucky Mutual Aid Network to continue helping people in times of need. This episode is a meditation on what it means to be both an artist and a community member, how ordinary people help each other out, and the ways we find joy in our lives even in hard times. Along the way, you'll hear from comedians, jewelry makers, poets, musicians, and more, as well as excerpts of performances from the day.
