For this episode, we had the privilege of sitting IN PERSON with Bill Valerio from The Woodmere Museum in Philadelphia. Bill shared his experience in various art museums and gave insights into the role of a museum vs. every other part of the art process.

We covered a lot of ground, but here are some of the highlights:

The role of the museum
Museums vs Galleries and how they each promote artists
Historical differences in perspective in the New York and Philadelphia art scenes
The importance of champions for artists and how they can open up opportunities

This is definitely a "listen twice" episode, so we hope you enjoy listening as much as we enjoyed talking with Bill.
