Our Executive Director Louise Martorano was a recent guest on the prolific The Art Biz podcast!

Alyson Stanfield is founder of the organization Art Biz Success. In her podcast The Art Biz, Stanfield interviews working artists about their business successes and struggles. The goal of every episode is to help artists be more productive, empowered, and successful in their artistic career.

Stanfield and Martorano discuss everything from the history and mission of RedLine Contemporary Art Center to the local and global need for artist career support — and how to find those programs in your community.

Martorano also touches on how visual arts coalitions can help fill in the gaps in an artist’s career, and how to audit relationship and leverage your community as an artist:

““There are certainly a lot of gatekeepers and closed doors in the art world. So it’s important to find organizations and people that really are showing up in a more accessible way and in allyship, versus an elitist practice. Because those relationships will take you very far.” ”
