Episode Description

The Red: Children’s Art Museum and Gallery nurtures and displays the work of kids who want to exercise their creative skills. Yvette Rock is the founder and executive director of the gallery. She has been working with young artists for decades, encouraging them to develop their skills and exposing them to career artists right here in Detroit. 

The museum re-opened in March in time for the summer season, so Rock joined the show to talk about the museum’s work and how she develops young artists.
