What’s The Story: Arts & Community, The Power of Collaboration
April 17 @ 4:00 pm - 5:00 pm
Sean Murphy, director of Center for Story at Shenandoah, will be joined by Katie Mooney Buzby, executive director of the Peter Bullough Foundation (PBF), and Robin Ha, cartoonist, PBF board member, and past resident, on April 17 at 4 p.m. in Hazel-Pruitt Armory. The wide-ranging discussion will explore the work PBF – a nonprofit located in Winchester – does to provide time and space, via residencies, for emerging artists. PBF, which welcomed its first residents in 2021, is a year-round haven and incubator for arts and community, featuring workshops, lectures, and other events. At a time when funding for the arts is being cut and opportunities are increasingly scarce, it’s never been more crucial for artists to find support (financial and otherwise) within and outside their networks. PBF’s mission is as critical as ever. Murphy, Buzby, and Ha will discuss PBF’s mission, how students can get involved, and why collaboration is the superpower of creatives. Audience Q&A is encouraged and Beyond The Classroom credits apply. For more information, email Sean Murphy at sean.murphy@su.edu.
