Show Notes
Born into a family of art collectors, Clinée Hedspeth advocates that creative expression is in Chicago's DNA. In this episode, Lissa & Thom visit with a renowned global art curator who is driven to prove the economic impact of cultural spaces. Why would Clinée leave Paris to lead DCASE for Mayor Brandon Johnson? How does she intend to change the city's narrative around the world? What does crisis management look like in the art world? The answers are inside this conversation with Chicago's Commissioner for Cultural Affairs and Special Events.
