In a series of energetic, 10-minute segments, local creators Margaret Arthur, Herbert Ascherman Jr., Lee Heinen, Rebecca Kaler, Terry Klausman, George Kocar, Stuart Pearl, Gloria Plevin and Judy Takács will share how they’ve been keeping creative in quarantine, including tours of their studios, recent artwork and general inspiration!

These events will last approximately 75 minutes including Q & A and will be hosted by AAWR Executive Director & Chief Curator Mindy Tousley on the Zoom meeting platform. Home to Home: Virtual Artist Talks are FREE, courtesy of a matching grant by Cuyahoga Arts & Culture
