Artists Mean Business: Episode 6 with Sixty Inches from Center

Artists Mean Business

Welcome to Episode 6 of "Artists Mean Business" with Jess Kaswiner. This week I met with the founders of Sixty Inches from Center, Nicolette Caldwell and Tempestt Hazel. We discuss what it takes to start a bold new project in the contemporary art world, regardless of the skepticism that may surround us. These women are a powerhouse to be reckoned with when it comes to grassroots and underground art happenings in Chicago; there is no doubt we will be seeing more of them in the not to distant future. To learn more about Sixty Inches from Center, visit www.sixtyinchesfromcenter.org and be sure to follow them all summer long for the WBEZ off-air series, "What is your Art" which kicks off on June 4th at the Chicago Cultural Center.
