Lisa Degliantoni and Liz Cramer host a conversation with artist Ted Glasoe, ambassador for Alliance for the Great Lakes, to learn about the state of the Great Lakes.

What are the major issues facing the Lakes’ health? What can be done by government, business and individuals? With support from the Alliance for the Great Lakes, we’ll take a look at these and other Lakes-related topics.

Many of you know Ted’s photography, beautiful photos of the Lake Michigan, taken from the beaches in Evanston. See his work at tedglasoe.com

During April 2020, Evanston Made is collaborating with existing Earth Month initiatives to provide a platform for Evanston Artists to create a month of art, awareness and action, making Evanston come alive with Art for the Earth! Learn more at evanstonmade.org/art-for-the-earth/

Art in the time of Corona: Chris Froeter Paints Portraits of Small Business Owners in Evanston

Click on the white arrow in the orange circle to listen to the interview from your browser, or visit soundcloud.com/lisa-degliantoni

Evanston Made member artist Chris Froeter has found a creative way to support small businesses in Evanston during the stay-at-home order.

He’s taking requests for commissions on Instagram @chrisfroeter_art to paint a shop owner's portrait, for $200 each. He’s asking people to send selfies instead of taking their photos himself.

When the portrait is done, he gifts the portrait to the shop owner along with $200 cash! Can you imagine anything nicer? A free portrait and cash. John Kim of Backlot Coffee is one such store owner who has benefited from this project!

Listen to our conversation about this giveback project and where the idea came from.
