Art is For Everyone

Matt speaks to Dan Chapman-Smith from Project Humanity.Project Humanity's work is complex and their elevator pitch doesn't easily fit into our 10-second 2026 attention spans. They do Verbatim Theatre – I didn’t know what that was a few weeks ago – and they work in youth shelters, and they also do mentorship programs in any art form you can think of.  I didn’t understand how any of that fit together when I first started researching this episode, but a thirty minute interview with Dan was enough to convince me that not only did the vision make sense, it was solving tons of different problems in Toronto! You can and should Donate or Learn More at: https://www.projecthumanity.ca/Music Credits:'Epilogue' and 'Lights' by The Slow Motions.
