Episode Synopsis

Send us a textIn this episode, I sit down with Coka Treviño to explore the work of Big Medium, a cornerstone organization in Austin's creative community. We delve into the challenges they faced in 2024, including a fire in their new building, the loss of significant grant funding from the city, and a major change in leadership. Despite these hurdles, Big Medium continues to empower local artists through, events like the EAST and WEST studio tours. Coka shares how the organization is adapting and how artists can still benefit from its support.
