#31 - Artist and Art Educator Pam Kravetz

Creative City Podcast

We’re back for Season 4! In episode #31, I talk to Pam Kravetz, an Artist and Art Educator with a penchant for "tutus, big wigs, and faux furs.” She’s done everything from performative art and yarn bombing to teaching children and radical puppetry. We chat about how she found her voice as an artist, the importance of connecting with people through public art, and earning two college varsity letters as the University of Cincinnati Bearcat mascot(!) We also discussed: - Celebrating what you’re good at, and pushing yourself in areas you’re not - How volunteering as a docent helped her realize she enjoyed talking about and teaching art - Why teaching has made her a better artist and vice versa - The need to say something different with her work in today’s political climate - Letting go of the idea of perfection Visit: pamkravetzart.com Pam Kravetz on Facebook @pamkravetz on Instagram artworkscincinnati.org brazeestreetstudios.com www.pendletonartcenter.com thestylesample on Twitter, Instagram, and Snapchat Head to CreativeCityPodcast.com for links and previous episodes, and sign up for the mailing list to keep up with Cincinnati’s amazing community of creatives.
