Steve Hansen has been a leading voice in Sacramento for the arts, smart growth, public safety, economic development, and innovation in government service.  He was also named by prior Creativity Speaks guest Maya Wallace as the “biggest advocate for our creative community of any recent local official.”  During Steve’s eight years on the Sacramento City Council, he passed a variety of key initiatives including those leading to new arts and educational facilities, Vision Zero policies, and protections for LGBT employees and residents.  Kicking off our next theme of “Shift” with this episode of Creativity Speaks, Steve discusses the importance of art in childhood education, subsidizing the creative economy, and showing up for music and theater culture in all its forms.
