What up, Beasts? Welcome back to the show. Today I am hanging out with Rosemary Moffat again. She is a wife, a mother, a grandmother and a friend. She received her California Teaching Credential from the University of California, Irvine and her Master's Degree in Theatre from CSUN. She has served as an Arts Educator, Actor, Acting Coach, Director and Administrator at multiple theaters, schools and organizations in LA, Ventura County, Orange County and across the country for many years. Now, in her older youth, she is still full of wonder (and somewhat of a goofball) and is happily relaxing into her older youth -- enjoying theater, writing and voiceover project work and doting on her amazing husband and family. I also like to call her Mom =) As always, I hope something lands with you today. I hope something you hear tugs on your heart-strings and/or I hope you laugh.

If you discovered the importance of your relationship with art as someone coming of age in Lima, Ohio in the late 90's and 2000's, odds are good that you have Sally Windle to thank for that. Is that a bit too hyper specific of a demographic to entice you? Well how about a story about how Bill Gates is responsible for derailing the direction of a school system over a million dollar “buyout”? It's pretty wild.But in all seriousness, my high school art teacher, Ms. Windle was kind enough to spend an afternoon over the recent holidays reminiscing through her journey as an arts educator and how that impacted the arts and arts education in a small Ohio city often written off as nothing more than uncultured, flyover state “MAGA country”.Want to come on the podcast?

In this episode, I talk with Artist, Musician and Educator, Paige Clark Perkinson. Paige was a working actor, when she decided to start her family. She talks about her struggles with anxiety and depression while her son was still in her belly, and how after he was born, she found herself questioning if the decision to create a family meant that parts of her would have to disappear. “Things were fine for a while. And then it came time to get back in the game and start acting again. And then there was this whole piece of guilt about where I spent my time. And I felt there was this resistance of my identity being limited to only a mother from then on. I had to say that I was an actor. I am an artist. How dare you? I got really defensive for a while.”Paige talks about raising her son, who is one quarter Korean, when both she and her mother weren't raised in the Korean culture. “It's been a weird experience to be singled out and excluded for something that I really don't feel a part of. I don't get the benefits of being part of a community. But I get the detriments of being excluded, because I look like I'm part of that community.”What started as Paige's “day job” working as an arts educator, has now become her primary focus. She is still an artist, she is still an actor, she is still a musician, but they have moved to the background of her life. She loves her students, she loves her job, but she acknowledges the little deaths she has had to go through in her life. “I am mourning expectations, mourning the loss of these hopes. That's definitely how I would describe even my reaction to wanting a girl but having a boy. I was mourning the expectation. And I will be happy about what I do get. But first I need to mourn the change.”Highlights from Paige:"Whether it's at nine in the morning, and they're asleep or it's at eight o'clock at night, when we're in tech rehearsal and tensions are running high, I think about using my powers for good. Theater tips over into the realm of non-academic. It gets really personal and emotional and I thrive on being there for them. I gives me purpose, it gives me meaning.""So that's how I'm approaching having a quarter racial, Korean son— helping him notice the differences in other kids around him. We live in a diverse neighborhood, I think, and in the summertime, he'll say, 'Oh their skin is brown' and I will tell him that yes, some people's skin is brown, some is peach, some is very dark and that is all okay.""I wish at 18 I had believed that. I wish I could have stood in my own beauty and my own power at that age. Saying it now, I think I'm definitely trying to more mindfully do that for myself. I am 35. I weigh more now than I did when I was 18. But I can still say, "You're beautiful. You're enough. You look great. "Don't Miss a Beat.

Creating posters for queer club nights, meant the work of Fredde Lanka (AKA Fredrik Andersson) was plastered all over London and that brought him more projects.But it was when those nights shut in lockdown that things really picked up - he started connecting directly with his audience, creating portraits.Now he splits his time between illustration, ceramics, teaching and running an art project for young queer people. The mix stops him being bored and leaves him feeling good.Fredde can see that creating work that explores his queer values may well have meant some big brand, big money projects won't have come to him (beyond Pride month tokenism). But this work leaves him feeling fulfilled and that's worth a whole lot more.This episode is sponsored by Freelancer Magazine.Dedicated to helping you grow a freelance business you love.Freelancer Magazine can land on your doorstep wherever you are in the world.SUBSCRIBE TO FREELANCER MAGAZINE and see what all the fuss is about!

Julie and Casey chat with multidimensional visual and sound artist and hiphop ambassador D. Cross about exploring sound without filters, finding your path as an artist and educator, breaking down walls between disciplines. Be prepared for some poetry, multigenerational beatboxing, and hearing all about his innovative ad campaign and top secret recipe for “Universal Cola”. TOP TAKEAWAYS “Voices / voice”—what if we have more than one? The rich history of D. Cross’s influences from the late 70’s/80’s: Buffy Robinson from The Fat Boys, Michael Winslow (voice artist/actor/comedian), Al Jarreau, Doug E. Fresh, and of course, cartoons. Between his spot on imitations of famous figures (and his teachers) and a bit of class clown instinct, D. has some STORIES to tell . . . all of which point to the freedom and unfilteredness that we start out with as vocal creatures. What if we brought back that childlike spirit to exploring our voices and what they can do? Sometimes the gifts others see in us don’t match our own narrative of what we’re supposed to do in life . . . but that information can be rewarding when we try it on for size. Learning to powerfully express yourself and your point of view must live side-by-side with the curiosity about others’ voices and perspectives. It’s an exchange. The crucial ingredient of vulnerability (and therefore bravery) when we think of both play and authenticity Lesson: Consonants create compelling communication. (How’s that for alliteration?) D.Cross (Derick Cross) is a Queens NY-born and Brooklyn-based multi-dimensional vocal and visual performance artist and arts educator. He creates imagery and vocal art that transcends and crosses boundaries of genres and labels. This “Vocal Beat Expressionist” uses “vocal acrobatics “ to create sonic collages of his poetry combining words, raps and beatboxing. He has performed nationally & internationally in venues including Madison Square Garden, SOB’s, BB Kings, The New Vic Theatre, Carolines, and Lincoln Center’s Avery Fisher Hall. Mr Cross was selected as a cultural HipHop Ambassador for The US State Departments Next Level program. He recently served as a Hiphop Cultural Diplomat in Azerbaijan. D.Cross has been featured on MTV, The Electric Company Nickelodean, TV Land and BET’s 106 and Park. His vocal talents have been featured on the award winning Aflac “Pigeon Rap” ad and 7–Up ‘s “10” campaign. He was the Hottest Poets $10,000 Spoken Word Grand Champion of 2002/03 as well as a member of their international slam team of 2003. D.Cross’ visual art has been exhibited nationally and internationally (Sweden and Brazil). His artistry is currently featured in Dr Myrah Brown Green’s award winning art anthology “Brooklyn On My Mind”. Cross‘s work can be found as part of the collections of Erykah Badu (Singer), Ed Lewis (Founder of Essence), Ruby Dee (legendary actress), Judith Jamison (Alvin Ailey), Kool Herc (Hiphop founding father), Big Daddy Kane (Hiphop Legend), and Bashiri Johnson (world renowned percussionist).

“There’s nothing more [important] to life than just being happy and being your true self and who you are supposed to be and who you are supposed to be with. If other people are not allowing you to have that, shame on them. Only you are responsible for your happiness.” – Marcie Chapa Born and raised in Houston, Texas, world percussionist Marcie Chapa now finds herself in California as an arts educator, sharing her gift of percussion with her students. Adela asks Marcie how she felt being surrounded by so many female percussionists back when she auditioned for Beyonce’s all-female touring band. She admits she wanted to say to everyone, “Where have y’all been all my life?” She cherishes the relationships she made during that time on tour. Marcie talks about her Latina identity and being Tejana - at times feeling not Mexican enough and not American enough. Marcie also reveals about how love and happiness happened for her later in life with the support of family and friends. Marcie asks us to consider supporting the Arts Council of Monterey County where she serves as a Board member and also the North Monterey County High School music program.

An edited archived video of Art Brunch S2E9 with Tiffany Sutton, Art Brunch streams live Sundays from 10-1ct on twitch Follow us on Twitch to never miss live art content ► www.twitch.tv/thetravelagency Video Version ► https://youtu.be/2UVSv6cCJqg » See pretty pictures on ig: www.instagram.com/thetravelagency Timestamps: About The Travel Agency: Our mission is to nurture a digitally native platform that hosts contemporary art making, produces art-centered entertainment, and provides digital residencies with multimedia exhibition opportunities for emerging artists. We present contemporary art in an approachable manner and provide tools and expertise to artists to share their practice in new ways. Our live media programming cultivates unconventional audiences, promotes understanding through interaction, and provides alternative avenues for public interest and support for the arts. About Tiff: She/Her Photographer Tiff J. Sutton was born in 1981 in Rochester, NY, and was raised in suburban St. Louis, MO. She began documenting family and friends after receiving a Kodak camera as a Christmas gift in the early 1990s. While primarily a self-taught photographer, she also attended classes at Washington University in St. Louis and St. Louis Community College. Sutton is a 2020 Harvard #InTheCity Visual Artist Fellow and was awarded the Regional Arts Commission St. Louis Artist Support Grant in 2019, the Regional Arts Commission Artist Relief grant, the Luminary Futures Fund: Emergency Relief for Artists, and A Sustaining Arts Practice Fund (ASAP Fund). Sutton has decided to work with black women exclusively, as a way to reconnect with herself and discuss social movements. Sutton works with digital, film and instant cameras. Artist Statement: Working within the discourse of abstract and figurative portraiture, I create photographs regarding selfhood and social movements. My work explores the unnerving possibility of multiple meanings, dual perceptions and limitlessness in the seemingly binary. Drawing repeatedly on Black feminism thought, I capture Black women with poise and naturalness that exudes a sense of ease. Photographed in classical studios, on - location domestic backdrops and neighborhoods, I am determined to catch every moment in the subjects’ life. Often beginning as a narrative portrait and ultimately becoming an abstract portrait, the image becomes an imprint of their visibility, their alterity gone. www.tiffjtiffsutton.com www.instagram.com/tiffanyjoy1955

He connects this notion to Afrofuturism by looking at Monuments as technofossil that preserves ideas and stories from the past for the future.

VerCetty is responsible for coining the terms Sankofanology and Rastafuturism and is one of the founders of the Black Speculative Arts Movement, a global platform for artists that pushes the imagination. In 2019 VerCetty co-edited the first Canadian Afrofuturism art anthology entitled Cosmic Underground Northside: An Incantation of Black Canadian Speculative Discourse and Innerstandings. A book that highlights works from over 100 Black Canadian artists, bringing awareness and documenting the growing contemporary art movement of Afrofuturism in Canada and is working on two more books. Currently VerCetty has a project entitled "Recasting DaCosta Initiative", hoping to get the first Afrofuturism monument depicting a science fiction inspired concept of the first documented free African in Canada - the translator for the French and the indigenous people the multilingual explorer, Mathieu Da Costa of 1506.

My guest today is Jimmy Lambert, actor, director, dramatic arts educator. I met Jimmy 7 years ago in Vancouver, BC when he was on the road tour of Mamma Mia. He comfortably became an extended member of our family. Born and raised in California, Jimmy studied acting at UCLA after turning down an offer to play baseball with the Tampa Bay Rays. He is grateful for all the values he learned from working with Gary Marshall, as well as the lessons learned from his parents. Sadly, his mom died 3 years ago, and as much as he misses her physical presence on a daily basis, he is grateful that he feels her spiritual presence in his heart and even in the audiences of his performances. Although Jimmy’s relationship with his dad is tumultuous, Jimmy says that no matter how much struggle you have with your parents, he believes there is still love to be found. Jimmy has performed in regional theaters or national tours with the musicals: Hair, Mamma Mia, Legally Blonde, Big River, and now is currently on the road tour of Beautiful, the story of singer/songwriter Carole King. When Jimmy teaches dramatic arts or coaches children in acting, he loves instilling meaning and depth to the process; he cares about sharing a philosophy of art that inspires enthusiasm, wonder and joy. Jimmy knows that the more we share of ourselves, the better we help each other, and as we help each other, the better our lives can be. Enjoy the podcast!
