I am a Vermont Artist

The "I am a Vermont Artist" series explores how artists' creative expressions reflect their experiences of ethnicity, gender identity, religion, disability, or age. Covering all artistic disciplines, and a range of backgrounds—from New Americans to the state's first residents—we hope to amplify voices that deepen our understanding of what it means to be a Vermont artist.

While we cannot guarantee that we will reach out to every submitted contact, we are grateful for any opportunity to connect with creative Vermonters.
