You have heard of art schools and after school art programs. But what about a non-profit that teaches students how to make commercially viable art for clients, while at the same time paying those students for their work while they learn. Because that is the vision behind Riverzedge arts and Riverzedge Executive Director this episode's guest Kristen Williams. Kristen has a long standing history in theatre as well as academia so it makes perfect sense that she leads Riverzedge Arts, a non-profit program that uses innovative work-based learning strategies to teach art, design, and critical thinking skills to the youth of RI. In this episode Kristen talks about the current state of art education, why certain types of artistic mediums are taught in schools over others, where non-profit programs get their money from, and art being a force for social and economic change.
