new sponsor!

We're happy to report that WCQS Public Radio has joined in as media sponsor for smART Speak!

WCQS is in great company - see the bottom of the weblog homepage for our full list of sponsors, and please thank them when you visit.

website updates

I'm happy to report that with the help of our summer interns extraordinaire (shout out to Crystal and Mallory!) we have posted a slew of programs for Spiegelman and Ringgold on the site. We still have some updating to do - as you'll see - so check in regularly for confirmation on dates and times.

Also - and this is cool - each artist now has a page of suggested reading. Wait, that might not be posted yet but it's coming soon. Many of these artists are authors too, but suggested reading includes some critical analysis and biographies/autobiographies.
stay tuned and enjoy!
