Home Grown: Art Support: Femme Funk and Sketchbook Dares

Home Grown: Your Show about Local Art

Today on Home Grown, David and Leslie throw down with two more great guests. First, musician Alice Clair visits the show for the first time. She is organizing the second annual Femme Funk: A Female Musician Showcase at The Ix Art Park benefitting Planned Parenthood. Alice talks about what led her to start the showcase, what it’s been like to organize it, and its genre-hopping line up. Then graphic novel artist Laura Lee Gulledge returns to the show. She’s taken her artistitc inspiration book, Sketchbook Dares: 24 Ways to Draw Out Your Inner Artist and has turned it into a Sketchbook Dares Workshop at New Dominion Bookshop. Laura Lee talks about what a sketchbook is, about promoting creativity, and about shutting away that inner critic. It’s all about getting the art out there here on Home Grown: Your Show about Local Art.
