We need everyone’s art with Lacey Prpić Hedtke

In this inspiring Radical Creativity podcast episode, I’m joined by photographer, public artist and astrologer Lacey Prpić Hedtke! As the founder of The Future, a project space and shop for witches and weirdos in South Minneapolis, Lacey shares about her experience running a community art space centered around magic over the past seven years, in addition to her expansive art practice. 

Lacey and I talk about the varied and unique ways she creates public art rooted in social justice, magic, place, history and astrology, and explore how she incorporates her library and research background into following the threads of inspiration to inform her projects and artwork.

In sharing about her experience, Lacey gives permission and encouragement for folks to challenge what it means to be an artist, how we define success as artists and what art looks like—if you are struggling to feel validated or worthy as an artist, this is a must listen Radical Creativity podcast episode!

As Lacey says,

“the more we make art, the more we are contributing to the world we want to see, which is its own form of magic.”
