What We’re Listening To: The Intersection Of Art, Education And Cultural Awareness

“The visual arts sector continues to grow at a rapid rate integrating applications of artistic and technological talent into the entertainment, fashion, and marketing industries across the world,” said Rob Berger for Forbes. “Students are clamoring for more educational opportunities to get a head start on careers that often begin well before cap and gown ceremonies at the hand of doodlers across the nation.”

“I had the pleasure of sitting down with award-winning artist and podcaster Rich Tu to shed some light on how art not only propelled a career but also allowed for a means to express cultural understanding and connection.”

“As a first-generation Filipino-American and award-winning designer, Rich Tu resides in Brooklyn, NY, where he is Group Creative Director at Jones Knowles Ritchie in NYC. He has worked creatively for numerous well-known companies and brands, including MTV Entertainment Group at ViacomCBS, Nike, Alfa Romeo, Bombay, Adidas, Converse, American Express, The New York Times, NPR, and remarkably, many others.”
