In this episode of Glowing Older, host Nancy Griffin interviews Paul Nagle, Executive Director of Stonewall Community Development Corporation. They discuss the unique challenges faced by LGBTQ seniors, including discrimination in housing and the need for innovative community-driven solutions. Paul shares his personal journey as a survivor of AIDS and his activism in creating supportive housing and care systems for LGBTQ older adults. The conversation highlights the importance of resilience, community, and advocacy in addressing the needs of this marginalized population as traditional long-term care systems face collapse.About Paul Paul has over 30 years in both nonprofit administration and LGBTQ+ activism and currently serves as the Founding Executive Director of Stonewall Community Development Corporation (Stonewall CDC) since 2015.  Before joining Stonewall CDC, Paul was the Executive Director of Cultural Strategies Initiative Inc. (CSI), a program of Demos, established with a major grant from the Rockefeller Cultural Innovation Fund.  The mission of this project was to strengthen art's central role in civic life, to enhance cultural, community, and environmental sustainability.   Before that, as Director of Communications & Cultural Policy for NYC Councilmember Alan Gerson (2002-2010), Paul organized the hard-hit cultural community in District 1 and engaged them in crafting strategies to help preserve and revitalize the arts in Lower Manhattan in the wake of the 9/11 attacks. His community-generated plan, Campuses & Corridors, served as the blueprint for a partnership between the Mayor, the Council Speaker and the Councilmember that was very successful in providing targeted capital and programmatic investments to restore the sector and convince the Lower Manhattan Development Corporation to grant $70 million to small to mid-sized arts organizations.   Paul earned both of his degrees from the Gallatin School at New York University, graduating summa cum laudefrom the bachelor's program.  He earned his masters' degree at age 49 in 2007. An abridged version of his master's thesis, Room for Creativity – the Role of Artists' Live/work Space in the New Economy, was published in The International Journal of the Arts in Society.Key Takeaways Stonewall Community Development Corporation focuses on housing and care for LGBTQ older adults. The organization has successfully placed over 1,400 families in permanent housing.Discrimination against LGBTQ individuals in housing isprevalent and often overlooked. Community generated systems of care are essential for LGBTQ seniors.The traditional long-term care system is collapsing due to outdated policies and low wages. Building networks of care is crucial for community resilience.

Episode 69 of ‘All About Art': The White Pube: Discussing ‘Poor Artists' & Why The Art World Needs To Change - with Gabrielle de la Puente and Zarina Muhammad  In this episode, I sat down with Gabrielle de la Puente and Zarina Muhammad, the co-founders of The White Pube, a platform launched in 2015 where they share reviews, essays, social media posts and memes critiquing the elitism and inaccessibility of the art world. The name the duo chose, The White Pube, is a play on the White Cube, a globally successful mega contemporary art gallery. It is also a tongue-in-cheek reference to the display format in which contemporary works of art are generally shown. Pristine white walls, wood or concrete floors, high ceilings… space of veneration or quiet contemplation, sterile where nothing other than “the art experience” can happen. The provocative name has even deeper layers when considering the references to white supremacy and ageism within the arts, as well - so listen on to hear me speak to Gabrielle and Zarina more about that later in the episode.  We chat about how they got started as an art critic duo, and how they have been working together and successfully collaborating for nearly a decade - having never had ONE fight (well, in this interview you will hear Zarina say that they did have a fight once… but it was about art). I also got the pleasure of speaking to Gabrielle and Zarina about their recently published debut book called ‘Poor Artists', in which an aspiring artist has to navigate money and power, and is faced with the decision of whether she cares more about success or staying true to herself. I ask Zarina and Gabrielle to delve into their writing process as co-authors, and to tell me more about what the experience was like to conduct interviews and weave them into the narrative, as the book integrates anonymous interviews with real people in the art world into its story. We touch on how writing the book has impacted their view on the arts sector, what the future holds for the White Pube, and so much more.  Thank you Gabrielle and Zarina, a.k.a.

Jewish scholars - both religious and secular - discuss in depth the implications of the pagan prophet Balaam's description of the Jewish people: From the peaks of rocks I see them, From the heights I gaze upon them. This is a people who dwell alone, Not reckoning themselves one of the nations. (Num. 23:9) In this season of Pesach, I read the essay written by Rabbi Jonathan Lord Sacks of Blessed Memory, in which he discusses the potential meanings of the People that dwells alone. Not even 80 years after the Holocaust, evil scumbag Jew Haters are tromping around American college campuses, cheering on the murdering thugs of Palestine. No one seems to care. Have a listen.

Instead of interviewing one emerging gallerist about why they chose now to take the plunge and open their gallery, I had the opportunity to speak to 5 new gallerists in London. I ask each gallerist 4 questions: Introduce themselves and say more about their gallery. What inspired them to open a gallery in London. What type of art the gallery strives to champion and how they have positioned themselves in the growing gallery landscape in the city. What is one thing they wish they could tell their younger selves when entering the sector as a gallerist.  I start off at [05:22] in North London to see Hew Hood at Hew Hood Gallery in Islington At [17:35] I then went East to see Helen Neven at Neven Gallery in Bethnal Green At [28:08] back down to Fitzovia is where I visited Maribelle Bierens at Night Cafe Gallery At [38:20] to Soho to see Cedric Bardawil at his eponymous gallery up on the first floor of a building on Old Compton Street At [48:46] I sat down with Jack Trodd who runs BWG Gallery, a nomadic gallery that had a home on 13 Soho Square right off of Oxford Street in 2023 but has conducted exhibitions all around London, north, south, east, and west, and will continue to do so in 2024.

I recently went to visit Beau Gabriel, a London-based artist, in his studio to sit for a painting. This was my first time sitting for a painting and it was really fun to experience this while also taking my mics with me to record it for you listening in. If you get bothered by background noise, I suggest you skip forward a tad because in the first 10 minutes, you can hear Beau prime his canvas and paint brushes while he me how to pose. In a casual interview format, listen in to hear us talk about underpainting and pigments, what it feels like being a sitter, and so much more. To set the scene a little bit while you listen, we were standing in Beau's studio in East London with the natural light of a very cold Sunday in November. Beau had his easel set up and a monochrome pallet of oil paint to create the underpainting of my portrait. I was standing across from him with a chair in front of me on the back of which I was resting my hand, and I had a little space heater facing me to keep me warm because of what felt like freezing temperatures, quite typical for artist studios in London in the winter.  This painting will take a few more sessions to complete, so be sure to follow All About Art and Beau on Instagram to see it when it's finished.

This episode and the book's publication is concurrent to an exhibition of Boty's works at Gazelli Art House in London.

She worked across a variety of mediums that include painting, collage, and stained glass and was known for celebrating her womanhood and sexuality in an unapologetic and open way. She died at the young age of 28, and has been a lesser known member of the British Pop Art Movement in comparison to her male counterparts.

Episode 53: A Critical Take on the National Gallery's ‘200 Creators' Call Out Recently, someone left a comment on one of my Instagram posts. They asked ‘could you share your feelings on the National Gallery calling all content creators to celebrate the bicentenary? Many are calling the criteria unfair and as a professional in the art industry and as a creator, I'm curious how you feel about it', which has now sparked the inspiration for this podcast episode. In this episode, I take a critical stance on the recently announced call out from the National Gallery to create a network of UK-based digital creative influencers as part of its Bicentenary celebration called NG200. Applications have opened for digital creators to make ‘digital content' which responds to the museum's  collection, exhibitions, building, and day-to-day activities. Those selected will be named a Creative Collaborator, or will join the Gallery's newly created 200 Creators Network. The issue is… Applicants are asked to have a strong existing social media presence, with either a minimum of 50k subscribers on YouTube; 50k followers on TikTok and 1m likes on their account; or 100K followers on Instagram. The gallery said it wants to “collaborate with creators whose communities are interested in any number of topics, niches, and themes, and these don't need to be based around art.” Listen in to hear what I think is very cool about this, what the bad elements of it could be, where the National gallery may have taken a misstep, and my personal conclusion I have drawn from all of this.

For the past two decades, the arts and cultural establishment in the UK has been trying to engage a broader set of audiences in their work. Countless initiatives to make the arts more accessible to the public and to make them more relevant have been advocated for in policy and funding settlements. But the dial on who participates and how much has not shifted, despite many thousands of projects trying to address the problem. And this isn't even the punchline. Not only do the interventions not work, nobody involved in them admits that the interventions may have been a failure. Having spent many years working in cultural policy studies and in arts practice, Leila Jancovich and David Stevenson take the arts and culture sector to task over this fiction. Their book Failures in Cultural Participation (Palgrave Macmillan, 2022) puts a mirror to the industry and invites cultural policymakers, organisations, and practitioners to confront their failures. David Stevenson speaks to Pierre d'Alancaisez about the culture sector's refusal to acknowledge failure in widening participation and moving the debate from the ‘value' of culture to considering how policies can be designed and implemented. David argues for an honest and transparent acknowledgement of failure at individual, organisational and governmental levels. The Failspace Project tools A special issue of the Transdisciplinary Journal of Cultural Participation edited by Leila and David David's “I hate opera” paper.

Museums - Laurie Taylor talks to Adam Kuper, most recently Centennial Professor of Anthropology at the London School of Economic, about their history and future. Originally created as colonial enterprises, what is the purpose of these places now? How do we regard the ways in which foreign and prehistoric peoples were represented in museums of anthropology? What should be done with the artefacts and human remains in their custodianship and how can they help us to understand and appreciate other cultures? Kerry Wilson, Reader in Cultural Policy at Liverpool John Moores University, discusses House of Memories, a multiple award-winning dementia awareness programme, led by National Museums Liverpool. The programme promotes the use of social history collections and museum objects to inspire communication and connection between carers and people with dementia, via dedicated museum-based events. Is this an example of how museums can offer social value to local communities today? Producer: Jayne Egerton
