In this episode of Carlsbad People, Purpose and Impact, host Bret Schanzenbach, President and CEO of the Carlsbad Chamber of Commerce, sits down with Galina Marcus, founder and CEO of the San Diego Art Directory, to explore her journey from Moscow to San Diego and her mission to elevate the region's art scene.Galena shares her backstory, growing up in cosmopolitan Moscow and moving to the U.S. in 2015 to marry her husband, a San Diego native she met—unexpectedly—on LinkedIn. With a creative background in fashion design, Galena discovered her passion for marketing while working in Russia for global companies like Hitachi Power Tools and an aviation brokerage. After relocating to San Diego, she led marketing for a telecom firm before eventually stepping away to focus on her art.The transition wasn't easy, but she found painting—particularly abstract and surrealist portraiture—both healing and fulfilling. Covid-19 became a turning point: her solo show was canceled, but isolation inspired her to start a podcast called In the Art Scene. Through it, she connected with artists worldwide, uncovering common themes of imposter syndrome, perseverance, and the challenges of making a living through art.Her conversations revealed how fragmented San Diego's creative community was, despite its vibrancy. Learning that the county had only recently established an Arts and Culture Commission, she decided to act. She launched the San Diego Art Directory, a grassroots, Yelp-like hub for arts and culture across the county. The platform now hosts thousands of listings, newsletters, and social media outreach, becoming a trusted resource for both artists and residents seeking performances, exhibits, and creative opportunities.Beyond the directory, Galena and her team curate programs like Activated Spaces, which partners with businesses to rotate local art on their walls, and the San Diego Artist Network, a job-matching platform connecting artists with businesses needing creative services. Importantly, her work advocates for artists to be paid fairly—countering the “work for exposure” mentality.The conversation highlights her newest endeavor, Homegrown Artbeat, a multidisciplinary arts festival debuting September 6 at Union Hall Gallery. Designed as an immersive experience, the event will feature live painting, music, dance, workshops, and visual art, showcasing San Diego's creative talent while ensuring participating artists receive stipends.Ultimately, Galena's story blends resilience, entrepreneurship, and a passion for community impact. Through the San Diego Art Directory, she is helping transform perception of San Diego from “not cultural enough” into a thriving, interconnected arts hub that contributes over a billion dollars annually to the local economy.

It's been a long time."Hi: अरिजुन ने मुस्कुरा कर कहा, "हाँ, समय सच में बहुत तेज़ी से गुजर जाता है।" लेकिन उनके दिल में बेचैनी थी।En: Arijun smiled and replied, "Yes, time indeed passes very quickly." Yet, there was uneasiness in his heart.Hi: प्रिय ने म्यूजियम की कलाओं की तारीफ की।En: Priya praised the arts of the museum.Hi: दोनों धीरे-धीरे चित्र देखने लगे।En: Both of them gradually started looking at the paintings.Hi: लेकिन प्रिय के मन में भी सवाल था।En: But Priya also had a question lingering in her mind.Hi: कुछ अधूरा था जो उसे सालों से परेशान कर रहा था।En: Something was incomplete that had been troubling her for years.Hi: प्रिय ने हिम्मत जुटा कर पूछा, "अरिजुन, तुम्हें याद है वो बात। तुम्हारा अचानक यूँ चला जाना?"En: Gathering courage, Priya asked, "Arijun, do you remember that matter? Your sudden departure?"Hi: अरिजुन ने थोड़ी देर चुप्पी साधी।En: Arijun remained silent for a while.Hi: फिर कहा, "प्रिय, मैंने उस समय एक गलती की थी, जिससे भाग रहा था। मैं डर गया था।"En: Then he said, "Priya, I made a mistake at that time, from which I was running away. I was scared."Hi: प्रिय ने कहा, "अरिजुन, हम दोस्त थे। तुम मुझसे छुपा सकते थे?"En: Priya said, "Arijun, we were friends. Could you hide it from me?"Hi: अरिजुन ने गहरी सांस ली।En: Arijun took a deep breath.Hi: उन्होंने प्रिय को पूरी कहानी बताई। उस समय की परिस्थिति, उनकी गलती, और उनका डर।En: He told Priya the whole story—about the situation at that time, his mistake, and his fear.Hi: अचानक, प्रिय ने उसका हाथ पकड़ लिया। "अरिजुन, सब बीत गया। हम सब गलतियाँ करते हैं।"En: Suddenly, Priya held his hand. "Arijun, it's all in the past. We all make mistakes."Hi: उन दोनों की आँखों में आँसू थे, लेकिन यह खुशी के आँसू थे।En: Both had tears in their eyes, but they were tears of happiness.Hi: अरिजुन को मानो अपने कंधों से बोझ उतर गया।En: It was as if a burden had lifted from Arijun's shoulders.Hi: उस दिन आर्ट म्यूजियम में, अरिजुन ने न सिर्फ कला को देखा बल्कि अपने जीवन की तस्वीरों को नए रंगों में सजाया।En: In the Art Museum that day, Arijun not only saw art but also redecorated the pictures of his life with new colors.Hi: वे अपने अतीत को स्वीकार करने के बाद अब एक नई शुरुआत की ओर बढ़े।En: After accepting his past, he was now moving towards a new beginning.Hi: अब उनके दिल में शांति थी।En: There was peace in his heart now.Hi: प्रिय के साथ, उन्होंने मिलकर उस बीते हुए समय के अच्छे पलों को फिर से जीवंत किया।En: With Priya, they revived the good moments of the past.Hi: म्यूजियम से बाहर आकर गर्मियों की वह धूप अब अरिजुन को चुभने की बजाय अपनी गर्माहट में लपेटे हुए थी।En: Stepping out of the museum, the summer's sunlight no longer pricked Arijun; instead, it enveloped him in its warmth.

Artist Brent Holmes breaks down the Las Vegas art scene, and whether peace as an ideal runs counter to human nature.
In this milestone episode of Bad at Sports, we welcome back Scott Speh, the founder and director of Western Exhibitions, to celebrate 20 years of the gallery's existence and its significant role in shaping the Chicago art scene. It's been 19 years since Scott's last appearance on the show, and in this conversation, we dive deep into the journey of Western Exhibitions, its impact on the city's art landscape, and the evolving nature of the gallery's programming. From the early days of launching the gallery to navigating the challenges and rewards of running an independent space in Chicago, Scott offers a unique perspective on the state of contemporary art and its communities. We discuss the dynamic relationships between artists, collectors, curators, and the broader public, and reflect on how Western Exhibitions has not only supported emerging artists but also helped to foster a rich cultural dialogue in the city. As the art world continues to change, Scott shares his thoughts on the future of galleries, the role of physical spaces, and how the local art ecosystem has evolved over the past two decades. Tune in for an insightful and engaging conversation about the intersection of art, community, and sustainability in Chicago.

Ceri interviews Gavin Wade, the visionary artist curator behind Eastside Projects and Senior Research Fellow at Birmingham City University. From his early love of comics to founding one of the UK's most innovative art spaces, Gavin talks to Ceri about transforming the art world through collaborative practices. His story of creating a new kind of gallery space, winning a £120 million market redevelopment project, and maintaining artistic integrity while pushing boundaries is both inspiring and practical for anyone interested in making their creative mark. KEY TAKEAWAYS Gavin's approach to artist collaboration shows how repeated engagements over time create deeper, more meaningful projects - rather than rushing one off exhibitions, he builds lasting relationships that allow ideas to naturally evolve into innovative work. Through establishing Eastside Projects, Gavin demonstrated how to create a new kind of art space by selectively adopting elements from commercial galleries, museums and artist run spaces while rejecting conventional limitations. His early immersion in comics and DIY culture shaped his understanding of self publishing and community building, providing foundational principles that continue to influence his approach to art making and curation. Gavin's success with Eastside Projects stems from his ability to balance ambitious international programming with local artist development, he recognised that both elements are essential for meaningful impact. His revolutionary perspective on gallery spaces rejects the notion of neutral containers, instead treating them as living artworks that continuously evolve through each exhibition and intervention. Gavin built his confidence in the art world through consistent action. Each successfully organised show and new connection strengthened his position and opened up fresh opportunities. His involvement in the Smithfield Market project demonstrates how artists can meaningfully influence city development when they're involved in early planning stages rather than being brought in as an afterthought. Gavin maintains creative sustainability through clear boundaries - implementing regular working hours, extending installation periods, and prioritising family time, proving that balance enhances rather than diminishes artistic output. BEST MOMENTS "As soon as I was on my degree, I just thought, well, I'm an artist, I might not be as good yet, but I'm trying." "There is no such thing as an individual artwork. There is always a relationship between the artwork and its environment and other artworks and other things that have appeared in that space in the past or will appear in the future." "I didn't even know what a sculptor was particularly at that point. There was a little bit of modelling, like clay modelling and stuff, which felt a little bit boring, like I could do it, but it wasn't that exciting." "The art world is about supporting artists and careers and trying to come up with ideas, but to do it, it needs to reinforce societal status quos that are very aristocratic."
