#053: Betsy Greer joins us to talk about the activism inherent in making art and craft. I’ve followed Betsy for several years and have always admired her consistent voice around how art can be used for activism (I happen to LOVE activist art) and it was an honor to talk about this with her. Check out her IG feed too - it’s a wonderful reminder that all creative acts - large or small - have the potential to create or foster change; a great message in today’s turbulent world.
