Episode No. 758 features artists Leasho Johnson and Laura Facey. Both artists are featured in "Dancing the Revolution: From Dancehall to Reggaetón" at the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago through September 20. The exhibition explores and expands the visual, political, and spiritual histories of dancehall and reggaetón through contemporary art produced in the Caribbean, New York, London, and beyond. It was curated by Carla Acevedo-Yates with Cecilia González Godino, Iris Colburn, Nolan Jimbo, and nibia pastrana santiago. A catalogue will be published by the museum and DelMonico Books in July. It is available from Bookshop and Amazon for $60-65. Johnson's paintings explore Black queer identity, Caribbean folklore, and post-colonial narratives. His pictures find meaning in the space between figuration and abstraction, and between Jamaican cultural heritage and broader art histories. His exhibition credits include the 2025 Liverpool biennial at the Walker Art Gallery and group shows at the Leslie Lohman Museum, New York, the Portland (Me.) Art Museum, and the National Gallery of Jamaica. His work is in the collection of the Art Gallery of Ontario, Toronto, the Pérez Art Museum Miami, and the University of Michigan Museum of Art. Facey is a Jamaica-based sculptor whose work addresses the land around her and the histories it holds. Her work often seeks what Facey calls "a healthy alchemy" for people and the earth. She has shown at the International Slavery Museum in Liverpool, the Havana biennial, and at the National Gallery of Jamaica. Her 2003 Redemption Song is sited in Kingston, Jamaica's Emancipation Park. A career-spanning monograph of her work will be published later this year.

Stronger Together: How Baby Booty Is Redefining Parenthood Fitness In this episode of the Boulos Beat, guest host Sasha Phillips sits down with Molly DeLong Brubaker to discuss how she transformed her background in startup marketing and her experience as a new mom into Baby Booty—a fitness and community platform designed for parents. What began during COVID as virtual workouts quickly evolved into in-person classes, built around a simple idea: parents need a space where they can work out, connect, and show up as they are—without leaving their babies behind. Baby Booty blends functional fitness with real-life parenting, offering classes where children are welcome and community is central. Each session combines a workout with dedicated time for connection, creating a supportive “third space” for parents to rebuild strength and identity. The business has grown largely through word-of-mouth, with many instructors coming from within the community, reinforcing its authentic and deeply personal culture. A key part of their conversation also highlights the real estate journey behind the brand's growth. Molly shares how moving from pop-up classes to a permanent studio required finding a space with easy access, ample parking, and a welcoming layout suited for parents with young children. With her first location in Portland and a second in Massachusetts, she reflects on navigating different markets, negotiating leases, and adapting spaces to fit her vision. As she explores expansion in southern Maine and considers franchising, real estate strategy remains central to scaling Baby Booty's unique community-driven model.

In this special episode of Radio Maine, Dr. Lisa Belisle sits down with her husband, Kevin Thomas—owner of the Portland Art Gallery—for a candid conversation about his unlikely path from a farming family in northern Maine, to foodservice distribution CEO, to gallery owner in Portland Maine's Old Port. Kevin shares how his lifelong appreciation for creativity began with high school sketches and Friday night gallery visits in Northampton, Massachusetts—long before he could afford original art. He reflects on lessons in business and branding learned on the job, the leap from an early online art venture to a physical gallery, and why creating a welcoming, approachable space matters to both artists and collectors. Together, Kevin and Lisa explore the Portland Art Gallery's monthly First Thursday openings, the importance of community, the joy of connecting collectors with meaningful work, and the ways art inspires families across generations—including their own children and grandchildren. This conversation highlights the intersection of creativity, entrepreneurship, and family—revealing why art is more than something you hang on a wall. It's a way of life.

Adah Bill HoltAdah sat at her desk, staring at a textbook on Portland's history. Her brow was furrowed, not with frustration, but with the sheer volume of it all. The pages were a dense jumble of dates and names, a tangled knot of information she needed to internalize for her history class. How could anyone make it all stick? She sighed, closing the book and pulling out her phone.Adah opened her eyes, back in the real Old Port. The city no longer felt like a collection of dusty facts. It was a living, breathing story, a palace built in her mind, with rooms and hallways filled with people, actions, and objects. She smiled at Grandpa Bill, a deep sense of gratitude and connection passing between them. The history was hers now, a part of her and her home.#mnemonics,#fictional novels,#Portland, Maine,#BHSalesKennelKelpHolisticHealingHour,

Wills Dowd was born and raised in the hospitality industry. As a third generation Portland Maine local, he watched behind the scenes as his father owned and operated six food and beverage concepts in the Portland area. Recognizing this dedication to the industry, Dowd followed in his father's footsteps by starting as a dishwasher at the age of 15 in the back of a busy kitchen. By the age of 24, he worked his way up the ranks and became the manager of the restaurant and even spearheaded the opening of two more restaurants for that business.Decades later, he uses his passion and knowledge for the industry, along with his Portland Maine upbringing to his advantage as co-owner and director of operations for restaurant concept, Lucky Cheetah. The new restaurant opening follows the success of his existing Portland-based restaurant Bird & Co, which is a town favorite.As a business owner, he takes pride in the ability to make change and bring visions to life. “There's no better feeling for me than knowing I made someone's day with good food, drink and service. I love when people come in for first dates or big relationship moments and we can help them create a core memory. I love watching someone take the first sip of a drink and their eyes widen and then they tell their friend across the table they have to try it” says Dowd. This is what continues to drive his passion for the industry and grow his business.When he is not overseeing the day-to-day operations of these concepts, he enjoys spending time with his family, catching up with friends on the golf course, and listening to live music in town.—Listening in Columbus, Oh?
