A conversation with Addie Ulrey (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In today's episode of Coversations from the Barn, we are speaking with multidisciplenary writer and theater maker Addie Ulrey.

Today on the podcast we are joined by writer Denise Santomauro and theater artist Karissa Murrell Myers.

Read excerpt
Today we are joined by actor, writer, and visual artist Senyah Haynes and songwriter and musician Molly Brandt. We talked with Molly and Senyah about when they each started to identify as an artist. Does being an artist mean you make all of your money off of your art? Does it mean you work on your art every day? Or is it something else? Molly and Senyah offer their own ideas about what it means to be an artist after spending a week writing and painting. Senyah Insta: instagram.com/senyahhaynes20
