We're seeing new audiences with each episode, and I love receiving messages and feedback. As always, any support is appreciated. Today’s guest is Gary Mansfield — an artist, curator, and the voice behind The Ministry of Arts Podcast. In this episode, Gary takes us through how he found art while serving a 14-year sentence in prison, how creativity completely changed the direction of his life, and what it’s like to rebuild your identity We discuss mental health, self-worth, finding purpose, and how giving someone a second chance can be the thing that changes everything. Recording this episode and speaking to Gary was inspiring- unfiltered and powerfully moving- he’s using his platform to give others a voice too, and I am proud to share this story on Koggno@mizogart
