“Creating art isn’t just a gift. It’s a privilege.” And supporting artists so they can live that privilege is at the heart of Rochester Artist Collaborative. In this episode, we had the privilege of speaking with RAC founder and director Adam Eaton about the organization’s mission, grassroots approach to bolstering art in the community, and its very bright future. Join us as we examine the relationship between artist and audience, redefine public art, and reveal why a healthy community means we all need to be stewards to local artists.

Key takeaways:

The mutually beneficial relationship between audience and art

How RAC’s mission can be a model for communities nationwide
