Y'all are gonna love this one! I'm joined this week by Lindsey Branson, Director of Education for the Appalachian Arts Alliance, based in Hazard, Kentucky. The Arts Center is a non-profit organization that seeks to promote artistic expression in Appalachian communities through lessons in voice and instruments, theatre groups and various community programs. I cannot overstate how important the work is that Lindsey and her coworkers are doing to connect folks in Appalachia to art forms that are so important to the culture here. Tune in to hear Lindsey tell y'all about the history of the Arts Center, how she became involved with it, and all that the Arts Center does to nurture the arts in Appalachia—plus some good discussions on Bluegrass and country music! She'll also tell you all about the ways that you can help support the Arts Center and their mission. You can follow the links below to the website and Facebook page for the Appalachian Arts Alliance to learn more! I hope y'all enjoy!
