Arts Educators Save The World
A conversation podcast with successful artists and their mentors
The work of great artists can change our lives. But first, someone changes theirs.
On ARTS EDUCATORS SAVE THE WORLD, artists talk with host Erica Halverson alongside their teachers and mentors about how those collaborations made them who they are today.
“"What a terrific blend of education, heart, and humor. Erica expertly and effortlessly weaves stories, practice, theory and heart together with some of the most widely celebrated artistic voices and the fabulous educators that were there from the get-go to remind us how essential the arts and arts education are for a thriving and functioning civilization."
