If you’re doing anything worth doing , you could collaborate with businesses, governments, and other nonprofits to address complex problems in a holistic way. I came up with an idea to mesh my love of weekend crafts fairs and artist open studio visits with my day job. You could take art to the schools. It seemed like a win/win. .

The museum curator does research, is an expert in the particular artistic style, selects the best examples, puts them together in an exhibit, provides important context with annotation on the labels, and so on. It isn’t mindless consumption of online information. If you think about what a museum curator does, it is very similar.

I think about how hesitant I was to become an artist, because I didn't see role models, and even to this day how hard it is for me sometimes to find peers who are women of color, because of how systematically they are pushed out. I'm an artist and an institution builder. The kind of art I do is art that gets engaged into the public.

Macy's was great, and I think the corporate sector taught me a lot of great skills. Kind of like artists, a lot of passion and drive can create great things, but they aren't necessarily sustainable over time. Just like someone is born with a great skill to be an athlete, a world-class athlete, I think entrepreneurs are born that way.
