This week, yet ANOTHER inspiring Milwaukee woman ...
You’ve probably noticed if you’ve been following us for some time, that we have a slight bias for women who are working hard to make Milwaukee a better place for EVERYONE. We love a good DIY story, and this week’s guest Symphony Swan is literally building her dream from the ground up. Or should we say, giving her dream a makeover. Voted Milwaukeean of the Year by The Shepherd Express, Symphony is turning her childhood home into The Cr8TV House, a creative gallery and workspace for black and brown and other marginalized artists to nurture their talents and artistry to help solve complex problems. (You’ll hear what that means in the episode). This is about a space, but it’s a conversation about so much more: family, community, inclusion and belonging, and the role of art in our society to shape the future where there is a (CR8TV) space at the table for everyone.
Listen as we talk about …
- How the death of her mother and father in quick succession changed her world entirely and threw her headlong into her dream of owning a creative space.
- Her word of the year, ‘courage’ and why she’s doing things that scare her
- And why she believes in transparency and showing people what’s happening behind the scenes (even if it’s messy and beautifully complex).
- The important lesson she learned about communication, forgiveness and relationships with the passing of her father.
