EPISODES

Join Executive Director Gavin Lodge as he hosts our podcast, Framing the Hammer, featuring conversations with diverse voices from across the American creative economy. In Framing the Hammer, guests from throughout the American creative economy share their work in their cultural entities, their passion for culture and their artistic inspirations from throughout their lives. These are the makers, the doers, the workers who contribute to American culture and thus American identity. Titled after a high school project in which a classroom debated whether or not a framed hammer could (or could not) be considered art, Framing the Hammer reminds us American arts and culture permeates our society far beyond just Hollywood or pop music icons (though Hollywood and pop music icons are invited, too.)
