Stover noted that he began the weekly video podcast at the start of the pandemic five years ago, when he had to shut down the art center and galleries he was running.

 “In order to keep our artists and constituents engaged, I started interviewing artists over Zoom so people could still learn about new artists from home. I loved doing it so much that I continued making new episodes on my own,” recalled Stover. “More than just making interviews, I realized that what I was doing was making a time-capsule of artists working today. I believe that it’s not only a great way for artists to promote themselves, but I think that in the future, these episodes will only become more interesting and valuable.”

Artists have high praise for the impact the show has had.
