The Arts Section 06/03/18
On this edition of The Arts Section, host Gary Zidek sits down with City of Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs and Special Events Commissioner Mark Kelly to talk about a new public art initiative. Soon people walking down Wabash Avenue will "Flying Creatures" perched on street posts. The street sculptures are being created by Chicago-area students. The Dueling Critics, Kelly Kleiman and Jonathan Abarbanel, stop by to review Strawdog Theatre's world premiere DAMASCUS. A little later in the program, Gary talks to Chicago-based author Julia Fine about her debut novel, WHAT SHOULD BE WILD. Harmonica master Joe Filisko visits the WDCB studio to talk about his passion for all things harmonica. All that, plus the weekly Arts Section calendar.
