I started this podcast to share the stories, history, and styles behind street dance culture. However, my guest today is visual artist and children’s book author Fuzz Garden. I was contacted by the public relations wing of pH Collective, a socially-conscious women-owned creative agency that is working with United Artists San Pedro, the organization that funded the soon-to-be released Mimi and The Silly Sea Lion. This unique book is not only a book for children, it was, thanks to vision of my guest, co-illustrated by students from Point Fermin Elementary. This podcast is ultimately about artists and community so I was happy to welcome the author into my studio to talk about the book and her personal story. Thanks to pH Collective for reaching out!
