About this podcast
Get informed, inspired, and involved. The Boulder Artist is about those making an impact, both with their work and with the lives they lead as creatives. But it’s also about culture and community, how place informs our arts, and vice versa. Brought to you by the NoBo Art District, created by Becca Saulsberry, and hosted by Kevin Hoth & Becca Saulsberry. Listen monthly.
