Show Notes

 

In this episode we hear from Jenea Sanchez; Artist, Mother, and Arts Administrator.  She talks about her current exhibition at MOCA Tucson; Mujeres Nourishing Fronterizx Bodies,  including collaborators Gabriela Munoz, Ammi Robles and DouglaPrieta Trabajan (DPT) based in Agua Prieta, Sonora, Mexico. Jenea talks about her artistic roots, trajectory and life at the border. We talk a little about arts administration, i.e. founding Border Arts Corridor, the upcoming Binational Art Walk, her role as Communications Manager at the Arts Foundation for Tucson and Southern Arizona, and her newest hat as host and producer of Artistories! She also graces us with the story of how her and her spouse moved back to Douglas Arizona, opened a cafe/art space, then founded Border Arts Corridor and then ran for Mayor/First Lady of Douglas on an arts platform–and won!
