Podcast #84 – All About Arts Districts with Brenda Kayzar

284020The podcast this week is a conversation with Brenda Kayzar, a professor of Geography at the University of Minnesota who researches urban real estate, housing, and the role of artists in urban economies. We sat down the other day to talk about the history and future of “arts districts” in the US, particularly the northeast Minneapolis arts district, where Brenda serves on the board of an arts advocacy organization. I hope you enjoy the conversation.

The link to the audio is here. Thanks for listening!

 

PS. There are only two days remaining to vote for Northeast Minneapolis as the #1 arts district in the nation. Go to the USA Today poll and vote!
