American Craft Podcast Launches (and I helped)!

Over the past year Sarah Rachel Brown has been collaborating with American Craft Magazine to bring the Object As... Project from the pages of the magazine to your podcast feeds. The first episode launches APRIL 15th through the American Craft Podcast feed. Enjoy this sneak peak into what the project entails and subscribe now to American Craft Podcast. Object As... Objects speak to our current cultural, political, societal, environmental, and social climates. Objects can serve as a form of resistance, as commentary on today’s world’s issues. Objects can be acts of rebellion, civic disruption, and speak to the future. Objects can create new conversations. Six artists were commissioned to create an object to carry ideas that are relevant to them today. Through one-on-one interviews with host Sarah Rachel Brown, you will hear each artist speak to how these objects came into being and what they mean to the maker. This project is just one part of a larger effort to use our organization's platforms and channels of communication to help illuminate and dismantle systemic racism, oppression, global warming, political issues, and continue exploring how the practices of craft can help build a better world for everyone. Let the conversations begin!
