Big Car co-founders Jim Walker and Shauta Marsh emphasize the focus on conversation rather than presentation when speaking about Big Car Collaborativeâs Artists & Community Conversations Series.
 âWe donât want this to feel like night school,â says Marsh. âWhile there are serious topics that will be considered, these are artists, writers, actors, dancers, community activists in this series. I hope there will be some singing and dancing! Some lightheartedness with the learning.â Â
Tonight, May 13, at 7 pm, Big Car Collaborative presents the first session of the Artists & Community Conversation Series. Sessions are free to attend and will be presented through Zoom and co-led by artists in Big Carâs Affordable Artist Residency Program (APLR). The conversations will also be recorded and available online, and Big Car is looking to find ways to broadcast the sessions on WQRT, 99.1
