How Fashion Builds Community and Creates Pathways

ARTS Redefined

I sit down with Yogi Terrell from the Columbus Fashion Alliance to explore the powerful connection between culture, economic development, and the arts. We discuss how investing in authentic culture can drive sustainable growth, create opportunities for underserved communities, and build ecosystems that fuel creativity and innovation. Together, we reframe the narrative around the economic impact of the arts and highlight the importance of advocating for the relevance and value of art and culture in society.
