MORE EXHIBITIONS / ART TALKS / PODCASTS
Our oldest daughter, Ara, recently launched her new podcast, “I’m Here Too”.
The podcast explores the intersections of art, culture, commerce, careers, creativity, family, identity and all that fills the spaces in between.
Check out the link below for the episode “Raising a Creative Kid, a conversation with Sheryl and Roger Tucker.”
"In this episode we also talk about things like living authentically and what it looks like to thrive versus survive. And all along the way, we have a ton of fun, because that is what characterizes all of the conversations when we get together. Our family group chats are pretty epic, and I'm looking forward to giving you a chance to jump in and join us on this one.
So off we go, and I hope you enjoy it”
