THREE guests on this weeks episode: Today we're joined by Gallery Director Leslie Lovell along with artists Christine Sajecki and Michael Henderson to talk all about "You/Lift Me Up," the first exhibition at the new location of Roots Up Gallery!
Christine and Michael met through Instagram, and soon developed a close friendship and collaborative relationship. A year later they joined together as an artistic couple, spending three weeks in Baltimore creating over 70 works of art. 30 of those pieces would go on to form the backbone of "You/Lift Me Up."
Join us as we explore the work and lives of these two exiting artists, and learn how they ultimately convinced Lovell to open her new space!

- Art on the Air Presents Shelley Smith Talking Saints & Sinners
On this week's episode of Art on the Air, we're excited to welcome Shelley Smith back onto the show to talk all about her latest project, "Saints & Sinners," a series of 120 oyster shell portraits that she'll be showing at Hospice Savannah's Summer Nights Party on Friday, September 24th 2021 from 6-9pm at Soho South Cafe!
Smith began the series shortly after a car accident left her temporarily unable to do the metal work for which she'd become known. Exploring the many personalities of Savannah, from well known folks like Jessica Lebos, Katherine Sandoz, and Mayor Van Johnson, to ordinary saints like her favorite post office worker, the affable artist not only found an alternative creative outlet, but a way to feel connected to her community during a time when in-person meetings were difficult.
A wonderful interview that you won't want to miss!
