Everyday Thin Places

Public Art and Getting Out The Vote with Conrad Benner


Listen Later

Rachael Gallagher and Elizabeth Varaso are joined by Conrad Benner, who is a blogger, a podcaster, an organizer, a curator, and a photographer. They discuss  "Mailbox Voters", a project created to educate voters on all the ways to vote, "To The Polls 2020", a display of temporary murals in Love Park using public art to encourage people to vote, and how Conrad balances non-partisan views with his own personal passion for politics, before diving in more deeply about using art as a form of resistance.
