In this episode, we hear from Logan Greene, executive director of Groundworks; a 501c3 non-profit, youth-driven community arts space in Tucson that opened last year. Logan talks about the programming going on now (including online marketplaces) and the Virtual Social Clubs that will be opening next year. He talks about some of the emergent musicians and artist who have been engaged with Groundworks, including Lauren Cabrera and Lone Heart Art. As a fifth generation Tucsonan, Logan talks about how all-ages art and music spaces in Tucson have changed over the years, and the gap that Groundworks exists to fill. (Logan describes how when he was 19 there were 4 or 5 all-ages venues.) Logan talks his passion for Groundworks, which marries his role as a musician and an educator, opening up opportunities for youth artistic and musical expression that go beyond the classroom.
