Spaces Where Creators Feel at Home with Diannely Antigua and Najee Brown

This conversation explores how we can create spaces where artists of all kinds can foster a sense of belonging and creative exploration. With Diannely Antigua, a poet and educator, and Najee Brown, a playwright, photographer, and arts producer, we share the story of the SeaCHANGE Conference, a conference like no other. We gather creators of different identities, races, and ages and explore how the arts can contribute to healing and social change. In this podcast, you’ll learn about the ways that the arts and creative community supported each of my guests in their paths, and how to create conferences where people can form meaningful connections that lead to lasting friendships and collaborations.
