Whether it's critical reviews of exhibitions, features about artists or arts institutions, or simply calendar listings of programs and events, the media-daily newspapers, weekly and monthly publications, radio and television-play a crucial role in the development and ongoing health of an arts community
Kenneth Baker, art critic of the San Francisco Chronicle, Gretchen Giles, editor of the North Bay Bohemian, and Pattrick Flaherty, series producer of SPARK will discuss "The Media's Role in a Healthy Arts Community" with moderator Michael Schwager, the Director of the University Art Gallery at SSU.
The Art & Conversation Discussion series is collaboration between Community Foundation Sonoma County and the University Art Gallery at SSU and is funded by The James Irvine Foundation Communities Advancing the Arts initiative. It intended to bring together various constituents with the Sonoma County visual arts community: artists, collectors, curators, and critics, creating opportunities to learn from one another and share valuable information, thereby encouraging a more visible and vibrant environment for art of this region.
