Why do you make art? Why is art important? Hamilton artists answer these questions, and more, on the Why Art Podcast. If you’re looking for inspiration for your next painting, help pushing past your writer’s block, or conversations to keep you company while in quarantine, this is for you. Hosted by Rose Hopkins and Laura Welch as a Hamilton Arts Week Signature Event.

Episode 1 – Mayumi Lashbrook – How do you remind yourself you’re in the right place? Why do you travel to train as an artist? We ask Mayumi Lashbrook, dancer, choreographer and co-artistic director of Aeris Korper all that and more in episode one.
