Best Behavior Creative Club

Our conversation, originally released in May of 2017, continues with Jennifer Willard- mentor, artist, and executive director of the Community School of the Arts. We dig deep into what exposure to the arts, and the ability to create, can mean to a young person, and what it can mean to a community...and why it's SO IMPORTANT to fight for the arts in schools. One of our favorite take aways from Jennifer - "The things you can control are the things you create".

Based in downtown Knoxville, TN, The Community School of the Arts is a nationally recognized after school organization teaching visual and performing arts to underserved communities since 1992. Their motto is "Define your art. Define yourself. Define your future." Learn more and learn how you can contribute: [csaknox.org](csaknox.org)
