This week we have a very special Rewind Episode. Your host Emily is joining a discussion panel about the Great Salt Lake at the UMOCA building. In preparation, we are looking back on episode 174: Art for the Great Salt Lake Part 1.

Join Emily at this special event! - https://utahmoca.org/event/water-land-and-the-work-of-art-a-conversation-on-the-great-salt-lake/

Andrew Shaw, Wake the Great Salt Lake Coordinator for the Salt Lake City Arts Council and Kellie Bornhoft, Artist, Professor, and Grant Recipient, join us to talk about the Wake the Great Salt Lake Art Project and Kellie’s “By A Thread” art installation. Hopefully one of several discussions, we talk about the Bloomberg funded art project, Kellie’s artwork as the first of 12 art projects, and the Wake the Great Salt Lake’s goals of raising awareness and conversation about the Great Salt Lake. So fun to step out of the academic arena for a moment and discuss the importance of art and different perspectives in addressing the complicated and critical issues surrounding the Great Salt Lake.
