92. Meet San Antonio’s New Family-Friendly Art Residency: Parts & Labor

This week’s episode of bigcitysmalltown spotlights something new in San Antonio’s arts community: a residency program tailored to support artists who are also caregivers. We’re joined by Liz Stehl Kleberg & Meaghan Mitts, the founders of the Parts & Labor Residency, a nonprofit organization in Southtown San Antonio that provides mid-career artists with the time, space, and resources they need to pursue their creative work. Designed to meet the unique needs of caregivers, the residency offers infrastructure like childcare to help artists focus on their practice while balancing family responsibilities. Listen as we explore how Parts & Labor is redefining what it means to support working artists, why this program is so important for inclusivity in the arts, and how it’s making San Antonio a leader in family-friendly creativity. -- --  ✉️ Subscribe to Bob's Newsletter 📝 Resources & Show Notes 🔗 Learn more about Parts & Labor -- --  RECOMMENDED NEXT EPISODE ► #82: San Antonio Artist Oscar Alvarado Always Thinks Big – Meet Oscar Alvarado, the San Antonio artist whose iconic mosaic sculptures and installations are seemingly everywhere in the city.
