Creative Guts

The team behind Creative Guts is back with the third Creative Guts Zine! As per usual, the Zine will feature the work of visual artists and writers who have been selected by jury, but this time we’re looking for collaborative pieces! Creative Guts loves collaboration, so the third Zine will feature collaborations between artists. The combinations are endless: we’re picturing photographers and dancers, writers and illustrators, and printmakers and poets!

This Zine is a collaboration with the Lyceum Gallery at the Derryfield School. In addition to being featured in the Zine, selected works will also be on display in a virtual gallery at the Lyceum Gallery and selected artists may get the chance to speak to students at the Derryfield School in exchange for a modest stipend!

Submissions are due midnight eastern standard time on Sunday, February 28th from artists 18 years and older, from anywhere in the world! We welcome a variety of visual and written works in any medium, including painting, sculpture, digital, printmaking, fiber, photography, mixed media, poetry, and short stories. Written works must be no longer than 500 words. For more details, visit www.CreativeGutsPodcast.com/zine.

The Creative Guts team will be joined by guest juror, Becky Barsi, Vice Chair of the Creative Guts Board of Directors and Co-Chair of the Creative Arts Department at the Derryfield School. Physical editions of the zine will be available for purchase, while digital editions of the zine will be available for free on our website www.CreativeGutsPodcast.com. If you have any questions, drop us a note at [email protected].

In this episode of Creative Guts, co-hosts Laura Harper Lake and Sarah Wrightsman sit down with Lindsey Castellon of Angry Gato Designs! Lindsey is an artist who dabbles in a little bit of everything from sewing to jewelry making, to sarcasm, to illustrations, to cats, and more.  Another member of the Port City Makerspace, Lindsay was part of the Seacoast Mask Makers effort back when the coronavirus first began and PPE was in short supply. The official mascot of Angry Gato, Lindsay’s orange cat Bowser, keeps her company while she works. Lindsay makes art to make people smile and this episode delivers.

In this episode of Creative Guts, co-hosts Laura Harper Lake and Sarah Wrightsman sit down with Dave Swillum of the Waking Up From Work Podcast, Crawlspace Audio, and BroadWing! Before you dive into this episode, we thought you should know it was recorded in ~June 2020 (blame it on the coronavirus) so you might hear a few things that are old news. Nevertheless, Dave is awesome. On Dave’s podcast, Waking Up From Work, he interviews musicians, artists, freelancers, small businesses, and creative entrepreneurs on making work a passion and living full time. Dave is an audio engineer with degrees in Music Business and Music Tech! You’ll hear about Crawlspace Audio, how Dave fell in love with sound, and you’ll even get a sneak peek of BroadWing’s single “Nashville”.

Tune in to hear about how the coronavirus pandemic impacted Anne’s work and the initial controversy Anne’s work created among quilters!
