CON-VERSE: BRING THE COMMUNITY WITH YOU
Story Week: Grow Deeper

The arts celebrates artists. Yet everyone has a story. How do we celebrate people with stories?

Participate in a Con-Verse-ation with artists who work with communities to amplify their stories through workshops, events, festivals, recording any way they can. These arts leaders go to where there is the most need and bring the mic.

HOST: Rob Waters
FEATURING: Antoine Lewis and Priya Srinivasan
