WELCOME TO MY DESK 8 Digital Short episodes
Welcome To My Desk is a series of conversations between host Anne Guttridge and artists about their respective creative fields. These conversations center around the more difficult but humanizing aspects of making a living as a creative such as deciding to financially invest in your creative passion, the necessity of marketing yourself on social media, and exploring vulnerability in public-facing work. They take place in the TPT office under Anne's standing desk with pillows, ambient lighting, and tea to provide a comfortable space for potentially uncomfortable conversations. The series will premiere air on Twin Cities PBS' Social Media accounts.
