    Cal Cullen and Margy Waller have made Creative Placemaking (an evolving practice that intentionally leverages the power of the arts, culture and creativity to serve a community) a part of their personal and professional missions.

    Creative City #40 - 2018 Haile Fellows Nicole Armstrong & Elisa Hoffman

    The torch has been passed, and the 2018 Haile Fellows are digging in: Nicole Armstrong is developing Queen City Certified, a business certification system focused on gender equity, and Elisa Hoffman is creating School Board School, training that provides potential school board officials with the skills, experience, and mindset to be effective in that role. We talk about what it means to manage a “streaming” project, learning from each other’s type-A tendencies, and what happens *after* the fellowship. I also had some advice based on my experience as a 2017 Fellow, including: - What to do (and what to definitely NOT do) - Shipping when it hits B- - My most meaningful pivot - Incorrect assumptions I made - The fellowship year timeline - Staying on track while maintaining life balance - The one thing I recommend doing ASAP Want to get involved?

    Tether Photo Shoot Series: Medicine Dance & Astro Enigma

    Photographer extraordinaire Claudia Hershner (claudiahershner.com) operates as a commercial photographer, focusing on product, with many a passion project taking place in her Newport studio. Photography marries all the artistic elements she loves and the immediacy of photography is also particularly gratifying. Her love of collaboration with other artists and the creative process of producing a shoot led to her involvement with two separate shoots for the upcoming Tether Sourcebook: Medicine Dance and Astro Enigma. Learn how she “paints” on and with the camera, the dance photographers themselves actually do behind the lens, the many uses of crystals, and how she incorporates her fine art background into digital photography.

    Tether Photo Shoot Series: Street Food

    For this special series, I’m talking to some of the talented folks who created photo shoots for the Tether Sourcebook about their inspiration, process, and industry insights.  Visual artist and graphic designer Janet Creekmore has loved photography for a long time—she even managed a photo studio. She wanted to do a food shoot that presented a challenge, and serendipitously met photographer Marlene Rounds, who connected with food stylist Jeffrey Martin. Learn how they recruited a cast of surprisingly cooperative “real people,” how their favorite shot came together on the fly, and what happened to the food once the photos were taken (hint: they ate it).  creativeeyecandy.com poppedart.gallery janetcreekmore.com marlenerounds.com         jeffreymartinfoodstylist.com gomezsalsa.com      sliceslicebabypizza.com tethercincinnati.com

    #38 - Tony Tiemeyer of Evolution Fashion Studio

    Fashion connoisseur Tony Tiemeyer (evolutionfashionstudio.com) opened his first vintage clothing store in 1984, and soon after started carrying the work of then up-and-coming designers like Todd Oldham and Donna Karan. After running several successful designer shops and managing high-end retail, he decided to take on a new challenge: e-commerce.

We also discuss: - How the Positively 4th Street window exhibit in downtown Cincinnati came together - Why he chose to invest in starting a business when he wasn’t sure what to study in college - How befriending a young Zac Posen eventually led to carrying designers like McQueen, Givenchy, and Lanvin. - What his upcoming plans are for Evolution’s FirstDibs (spoiler: fun things at a lower price point!) - Why he’s tempted by the idea of a brick-and-mortar but focused on growing the e-commerce side of the business.
