#049 Are you creating with authenticity? Many of us lose track of what lights us up when we focus on engaging with and providing value for others. But work without a personal touch is often seen as bland and has less impact. So how do you explore your creativity and learn to connect with your audience more effectively? Your local community might have an answer: art parks. Our guest today is Alex Bryant, the Executive Director of the Ix Art Park Foundation in Charlottesville. The Foundation manages a free mural and sculpture park and several community-driven series including weekly markets supporting entrepreneurs and creative empowerment programs. In this episode, we look at creativity as a tool that can enhance our lives and help us expand our reach digitally and locally. Alex and Jillian discuss forming online communities around local institutions, bringing different people together, healing division with art, and providing safe creative outlets for your community members.
