Listen a conversation with Aaren Yeatts Perry the president of Education Action Resources and poet and creative writing teacher for 20 years.
Wherever I go, I’m drawn to outsider art on city walls. Art museums, like sanctuaries, feel restrained—quiet, controlled, and deliberate. In contrast, street art, with its unfiltered energy, genuine expression, and often rough edges, sparks my awareness of the vitality found at the fringes of society. Museums conserve history; the art on the streets speaks of the present moment.
