Podcasts
Our podcast series started in 2021 and was initially funded by Arts Council England.
In the Podcasts with Turquoise Profiles, Jess asks the artists four questions.
1. Why did you start a creative business?
2. What challenges have you faced whilst growing your creative business and how did you overcome these?
3. How do you make it work? (for example, are you full-time, part-time).
4. Do you have one piece of advice you would like to share about being a creative?
These questions share the many different ways that creatives make a living in North Devon.
The Podcast Series with Purple Profiles is an ongoing limited series looking at difficult subjects within the creative world. These episodes shine a light on these less-talked-about subjects in the hope that we can embrace every aspect of creativity.
Our Studio Interviews which can be found on the Maker pages have a Pink/Red Profile and are discussions with the Makers whilst in their studios and at their homes.
