I'm Kate Bowman here in the iHeartMediaStudios in our lovely capital city of
Hartford. For today's show, Hypealso known as Hartford Young Professionals and Entrepreneurs,
is taking over the MIC's here atPulse of the Region to host another

(00:20):
episode of Hype Hot Takes. Todaywe will get the pulse about the critical
role of local arts and culture infostering social cohesion and community well being in
Hartford. So with that, itis my pleasure to introduce my colleague who
also I think at this point wecould probably just be co hosting of this
show, a Mia Sinatro, whois the executive director of Hype. So

(00:43):
Mia, welcome back for Hype HotTakes. Thanks Kate, happy to be
on here this morning. Fantastic.Well, it's always great to have you
and have people here in studio.I know I always say that, but
it's so exciting to see smiling faces. Today we'll say we have some computers
screen so we're in a different studio, but everyone's waving, so this is
fantastic. So with that, Mia, I will hand over the mic officially

(01:06):
to you for our third episode,right fourth episode, my goodness, So
with that, take it away,Thanks Kate, Hello everybody, and welcome
to Hype Hot Takes, the podcastwhere young professional leaders in Hartford come together
to discuss trending topics and explore whatmakes Hartford a unique destination for young talent.

(01:29):
I'm your host, Mia, executivedirector of Hype. So let's give
some background as to what we'll betalking about today, and I like to
start about you know how this topiccame to be. So when the Hype
Leadership Committee was brainstorming the episode's topic, the subject of arts and culture made
it to the number one spot almostimmediately, and then it got the gears

(01:53):
turning. And for me, Iwanted to further understand why a vibrant arts
and cultural landscape is important to youngpeople and the impact the scene has on
a community. We take a lookat cities like Seattle, Austin, Chicago,
Miami, Nashville, San Francisco.Those are what I would consider yp

(02:15):
hotspots, and the arts have developedthese cities cultural identities and they boast a
vibrant and strong community where young peoplecan express themselves creatively and experience new things.
Young people can attend concerts, watchplays, explore art exhibitions, become
local foodies. All of these assetsare inspiring and make yps feel more connected

(02:40):
to the city they live in.Well, all of this means nothing if
you don't have people to enjoy theseexperiences with. And I think that that
is the secret sauce For young people. You know, arts and culture scene
is where they can meet their people, They make new friends, collaborate on
creative projects, and feel a sonof belonging the community that values them,

(03:01):
their creativity and their self expression.The arts offer people experiences shared passions,
identity, and culture. It addsthat special spark to a city's atmosphere,
its energy, and it makes ita place where young people want to live,
work and play well. Fortunately forus, Hertford is rich in arts

(03:23):
and culture and community, and we'regoing to dive into Hertford's thriving art scene
today for a glimpse into this city'ssocial fabric. The opportunities for growth,
networking, collaboration that lead to afulfilling and meaningful Hartford experience, encouraging young
and old alike to stay and contributeto this city's growth and prosperity Without further

(03:46):
ado, let's dive into it.We're thrilled to have two fantastic guests with
us this morning, Matt Larson andKelly Dougherty from Hype Leadership Committee. Good
morning everyone, Welcome, good morning. So great to have you all on
board today, and I'd like tothrow it over to you guys to roll
into some introductions. Kelly, whydon't we start with you, Himea,

(04:06):
Hi, Kate, and Hi everybodyout there. My name is Kelly Doherty
and I've been with Hype now forabout two years and I'm so happy to
be here. I work in theareas of development, administration and communications for
hands On Hartford. Just to tellyou a little bit about hands On Hartford,
We're an amazing nonprofit in the Parkvilleneighborhood of Hartford. We're serving the

(04:28):
community in the areas of food,housing and health for over fifty years.
We provide a man a community pantryfor over eight hundred Hartford residents a month
and operate the area's only hollal pantry. We also have a homeless outreach team
who canvasses the streets six nights aweek, building trusted relationships with those experiencing
homelessness, bringing them blessing bags filledwith hygiene products and snacks, and if

(04:51):
they're open, providing them supportive resources. And we also offer rental and utility
assistance, supporting housing, health servicesand one more thing. Just last year,
we partnered with chef Tyler Anderson totransition our community tub kitchen into a
full restaurant. I was just goingto ask you about that. Regardless of

(05:11):
ability to pay, everybody's welcome.It's so delicious. Everyone should absolutely check
it out. Thank you buy.When is that hosted? Kelly? How
can people get involved and that offeringthat hands on Hartford does the for the
community. Sure. If you're lookingto volunteer, you can reach out to

and gather fifty five our food pantryas well as our community garden and other

(05:34):

It's a very casual, lively environmentfor people from all walks of life come

night through Saturday night from five thirtyto ten pm, and we partner with

(05:57):
area chefs who create our menu,and all of our reservations are open to
all, but twenty percent of themare offered to those who can't afford the
prefixed price, and so they'll havea complimentary meal. That's incredible, Kelly,
thank you for sharing with us.Thank you. I love hearing all
about the key initiatives and programs thathands on Hartford offers its community in a

(06:17):
way creating social cohesion for all thatparticipate. So Matt, over to you.
Let's hear a little bit about you, who you are, what you
do. Thanks Mia, and thankyou Kate. My name's Matt Larson.
I lead the Communications division for theOffice of Global Affairs at the University of
Connecticut. I was born and raisedjust across the river in East Hartford,

(06:39):
and I've been living in the CapitolCity for about two years now. I
know the topic of arts and cultureis a huge passion of all three of
us today in the room, andI know you guys have taken a deep
dive into figuring out what it iswe want to talk about today. So
I want to take the opportunity tothrow it over to Kelly and Matt to
share with our audience and how artsand culture has played a role in fostering

(07:02):
social and community cohesion in Hartford fromyour lens, from your YP lens,
and if you could share some examplesof initiatives, organizations, events expos that
you have attended, that you enjoy, that you feel have a positive impact
on the Hartford area and young professionalinvolvement. Let's hear it, because I'm

(07:23):
dying for our audience to learn moreabout the arts and culture space and what
Hartford has to offer. Kelly,I think that you're a great person to
lead us off into this because justin knowing you and following everything that you
do, you are just so activein so many different cultural spaces around the

(07:44):
Hartford area. So I'm really curiousto hear more about what you have to
say on this topic. Thank youso much. Matt So I started working
in Hartford two years ago, andprior to that, I would come to
Hartford specifically for an event like ashow or a concert or a game,
and then I head right back out. But when I started working at hands
on Hartford, I said, Iwant to be a part of the fabric

(08:05):
that is this community, and Iwant to get to know the people who
are involved, and so I deliberatelymade sure that I would connect with the
community by going to as many eventsas I can, which, to some
people's disadvantage, is hard to reachme because of that, but I like
to post about it on my socialmedia so people are inspired to look at
Hartford as an active place to workand play. So I would love to

(08:26):
start by touching upon the visual artsin Hartford, let's hear it. So
one of my nonprofit neighbors is theRise Up Group. The executive directors Matt
Conway. They're literally right across thestreet from us on Bartholomew Avenue, and
their goals to make Connecticut a numberone destination for art and to cultivate a
creative community of Connecticut based artists andlocally based artists. They're known for completing

(08:52):
over one hundred and fifty murals inplace making projects since made twenty fifteen throughout
Connecticut. I became obsessed with themwhen I learned about their mission and started
going to their events, and throughdoing so, I've met so many different
young professionals and other leaders and artsand culture, and then was became invited
to go to other events through them. They are true community collaborators. Their

(09:16):
events combined local music, visual anddigital art, and dance. For example,
they just hosted an event called ArtManifestation. Tell us about that.
Yeah, that was back in May. They partnered with our entire Bartholomew Avenue
neighborhood to host effects. Yeah itwas benefiting both their organization and Hands On

(09:37):
Hartford. A variety of businesses andnonprofits on our Street got to open our
doors to showcase artwork from the RiseUp Group artists, bringing people who may
otherwise not have visited our spaces tocome in and check out what we're doing,
what we're about. They then invitedthe community to paint a giant mural
on Fabric offered a multitude of artisticexperiences, including local music, body painting,

(10:01):
dancing that included art while they're dancing. An immersive art installation called the
Electric Jungle, which partnered with artistMercury and The Bushnell's digital project manager,
Ryan Glista, who helped it cometo life the same exact night, our
Hands On Hartford restaurant Gather fifty fivepartnered with them to offer live music and

(10:22):
a fine dining experience as a fundraiser, benefiting both of us, a truly
collaborative effort. Because of this success, hands On Hartford is now looking to
offer live local music once a monthand gather fifty five and further, some
of our artwork in the restaurant evenfeatures photos on canvas of some of the
Rise Up Group's murals, further connectingour space to the broader Hartford arts community.

(10:46):
So seemingly two completely unrelated nonprofits havenow found a way to combine forces
and really live the meaning of communitycollaborators. Heck yeah, and not only
that. I love that you touchedupon what you were sharing with us,
Kelly, that the business community alsohas involvement in this. And I think
in order for the arts and culturespace to truly thrive, you need all

(11:07):
parties to be collaborating on a missionof placemaking, of creating social cohesion through
arts and culture. And thank youso much for sharing. I'm sad to
have missed that, but I lookforward to the next one. Do you
happen to recall what the mural wason the piece of fabric that they did.
I love hearing about what the RiseUp group is illustrating on buildings,

(11:28):
fabric, all the things. Well, the mural at the actual event was
they provided spray paint and people couldjust do whatever they wanted. So it
was a gigantic It was a longoffense call to action for the community to
like express themselves. Really, that'sso cool. Is it still an active
installation? It's not. He hadit up for a couple of weeks.
Okay, the wind was kind oftorturing it, so it came down,

(11:50):
But it may live somewhere. I'mnot quite sure. That's awesome, and
I think that experience alone was impactfuland allowing people to pick up a can,
to get some art on a pieceof fabric and show their own self
expression and what Hartford and the oldarts and cultural scene means to them.
Do we want to dive into livemusic and talk about something exciting coming up,

(12:13):
Kelly, or do you want toshare your experience with um, how
you enjoy live music and what yourfavorite places to view that are. Sure?
So Pratt Street is having a momentright now really coming to live Yes,
um, So I'm going to talka little bit about that and then
touch upon some other awesome events inmusic. Yeah, so they have Pratt

(12:35):
Street Sounds on Friday nights. Theyhave Paturday Night Live on Saturdays. Now,
I finder Jack when when you areattending these events, are you seeing
fellow young professionals getting involved, folksaround your age really digging deep into what
the arts and culture space has tooffer. Absolutely. Yeah, I'm seeing
people from all walks of life,all cultures. I'm seeing people that I've

(12:58):
seen at other art and home frollevents coming to these events. So you're
creating relationships through attending these experiences exactly. They also have on Tuesday nights.
The third Tuesday typically Hydro presents hipHop on Pratt, which I believe is
the first of its kind, andthen they have the Taste of Pratt.
They've had Pride featured there. Soall sorts of cool events on Pratt Street.

(13:20):
A dear friend of hands on Hartfordis Joey Batts. He's not only
a teacher, but he's also anartist and a hip hop artist, and
he hosts every year hip Hop forthe Homeless. This year it's going to
be the tenth anniversary. It's usuallytoward the end of the year, and
he hosts them through various sites throughoutthe state, and the one that he
does in Hartford benefits hands on Hartford, which is amazing. And then we've

(13:43):
got Trinity Hip Hop Fests that's usuallyin the spring that incorporates breakdancing, rat
battles, live music, dance ciphers, which if you don't know what if
dance cipher is, I highly highlyrecommend that you become a part of water
or at least watch it. Canyou give us like a little taste of
I can do it here now.It's basically freestyle dance jam in a circle

(14:05):
and so you'll watch people start breakdancingand doing other types of dance and everybody
cheers everyone on and it really driveshome the point of community. And we
have some great artists that are drivingthis out in Hertford. So we have
Hydro, we have the Betpack,we have our Heartford's first troubadour, kaym
Kelly, who goes by the rapPoet and self Suffice. They are community

(14:28):
builders to in every degree and they'redoing these things all throughout Hartford. We
also have the Heartbeat Music Festival comingup on September ninth. There's a Black
Eyed and Blues fest. Parkville Marketloves to host music and salsa dancing.
Gastrol Park has a lot of livemusic, and then Our Street Tavern,

(14:48):
which is one of my favorite stompinggrounds. I discovered it after everybody else,
but I'm gonna I'm gonna revitalize it. So yeah, they have live
local music all the time, especiallyWednesday night. Talk about a hub for
yps to feel a social experience likeI feel like any a night on Wednesdays

(15:13):
at Arch Street. It's just loadedwith folks twenty five to forty just getting
their groove on, enjoying live musicand being together, wouldn't you say?
Absolutely? And two of my favoritebands that perform there are Booyah and the
west End Blend. So west EndBlend is going to be doing a special
performance and I'm gonna let you talkabout that, Mia, So thank you
so much, Kelly. I'm soglad you brought this up and I was

(15:33):
almost remiss in mentioning it. Weare so excited to be hosting Hype Vibes
on Hartford Live on September seventh,which is featuring Maine main stage talent west
End Blend, who are performing thatevening. I won't tease the whole event
right now, because Kate and Iare going to dive into that a little
bit later on. But it's anexclusive cocktail party Trendy Vibes where we give

(15:58):
you a bird's eye view on theship shipment in Goodwin Terrace where you can
enjoy this live and free Hartford LiveMusic Festival from a terrace point, overlooking
the main stage and enjoying west EndsBund music with fellow young professionals. What
I think is incredible about all thatHartford has to offer in the arts and

(16:19):
culture space is that there is trulysomething for everyone. And I think some
of my frustration stems from those folksthat are like, there's nothing to do
in Hartford for me, and likelies Kelly just rattled off something that you
could do for every week in thesummer into the fall, let alone the
winter. So I highly encourage youngprofessionals to take a deeper dive. Visit

(16:41):
Hartford dot com, Visit Hypehartford dotcom, see what events are going on
within the Hartford region and get outthere and participate and be a part of
the arts and culture scene. Itcreates social cohesion and community, and it's
a way to feel a sense ofbelonging within the area. Matt, I'm
going to kick it over to youand talk a little bit about you know,

(17:02):
how do you view the impact ofarts and culture on attracting and keeping
our young professional talent in the area. What are your thoughts on that.
Of course, I'm going to startby a statistic that rent dot com named
Hartford the number one city for artistssure did, highlighting the city's contemporary and

(17:23):
historic art institutions, museums, collectives, and noting the affordability of the city
respective to other places in the area. Of course, that's something that can
always be discussed further, and wecan definitely talk more about each of those
those qualifications. But I think youbring up a great point that there's always

(17:45):
something to do in Hartford. Sometimesthere's so much that you can't get to
everything, and part of that isbecause this is a community that really believes
in the arts, truly values thearts and culture as an important tool to
educate folks of all ages, thatuses arts and culture as a vehicle for
critical thinking about our community's history,about our present, and about our future.

(18:11):
Amazing, Matt. You know,it just goes to show that Hartford
has such a rich history and diversecultural scene, and I want to talk
a little bit more and hear fromboth of you briefly on how can young
professionals contribute to promoting the city's culturalscene and you know, embrace new forms

(18:33):
of artistic expression. Is it gettinginvolved like Helly you are with organizations like
the Rise Up Group. Is itattending an event, is it trying something
new? What do you think orwhat can you recommend to a young professional
that is new to the area,isn't sure where to start, but has
a big passion for placemaking and gettinginvolved in the arts and culture scene.

(18:55):
I would say definitely get out thereand meet your neighbors. So visit the
small businesses on your block and inyour neighborhood, attend a festival, introduce
yourself. Despite our reputation, peoplereally are friendly here and especially in Hartford.
For me, when I was comingin as a Heartford professional, I
was looking to make new friends andI realized if I just went to any

(19:18):
kind of event and said hi,my name's Kelly, and this is what
I do, it started a friendshipthere and I learned to then learned about
all the other events going on andgot invited to those. And I would
encourage businesses to ask their yps toget involved and to be creative thinkers and
to reach out to all these othernonprofits and businesses that are collaborating and asked

(19:42):
to collaborate with them. If youdon't have the time to be the collaborator,
at least reach out to them andsay, hey, we'd like you
to take the lead on this.How can our young professionals get involved in
what you're doing? Definitely, andI think that speaks to you know,
you just touched on how organization andbusinesses can see collaboration, and I think

(20:03):
it starts with outreach. It startswith trying something new and understanding what it
is your young professional talent is lookingfor outside of the workplace, and in
order to retain that talent, it'simportant to offer both social, community and
networking opportunities for them. And Ithink the arts and culture space is a
great place to start. You know, as we kind of talk about how

(20:29):
the strong arts and culture is presentin Hartford, can you guys discuss,
like from your perspective, what isthe overall impact and how does this benefit
a community as a whole, likewhat role can ype's play and shaping the
landscape and being sure that they useHartford to cater to their preference as and

(20:52):
needs, because again, there's somuch to offer, and I can offer
you know, some color here.You know, a strong arts and culture
presence in a city essentially enhances theoverall well being of residents because it provides
opportunities for creative expression, cultural expiration, community engagement. And you know,
I've said this before and I'll sayit again, it fosters a sense of

(21:12):
true belonging and identity within a community. And sorry, guys, not to
steal the thunder was really passionate aboutthis. Absolutely. I think young professionals
can play a vital role in shapingthe cultural landscape of Hartford by actively participating
in everything it has to offer.And Kelly, like you said, it
may be a little uncomfy, butthat's how you grow, stepping outside of

(21:33):
your comfort zone. And I feelHertford has the community to nurture that,
and by actively participating in those eventsand supporting local artists and initiatives and advocating
for diverse and inclusive artistic offerings,it organically begins to align with a young
professional's preference and needs, and that'swhere they kind of find their niche and

(21:55):
weave their social fabric throughout the community. Absolutely, anything that anyone is looking
for, you can definitely find ithere. I mean, if you don't
know where to go, you canstart with some of the larger cultural institutions.
You can go to things like theWadsworth or to the Mark Twain House,
and they offer some really interesting andunique programming. They might be historic

(22:18):
institutions, but they're also finding newand creative ways to engage the community,
whether that's through different book lectures orthrough programming, particularly through the Amist Odd
Center for Arts and Culture at theWadsworth. I would say to any young
professional who's new to the city,start start with some of those larger institutions.

(22:40):
But as you show up, likeyou said, and like you said,
Kelly, just keep going to things, try out some new things,
and as you keep going, you'lleventually find all of the tiny jewels that
really make up a beautiful treasure herein the Hartford art scene. I agree
Matt and I saved the best forher last because we are almost out of
time. If you can believe it, we rocked through this podcast, and

(23:03):
it was such a pleasure having youboth here today. You know, we've
talked about how young professional retention ispartly anchored in arts and culture, and
what is it about Hertford's culture thatthreads each of you into the community,
and why don't we start with you? Kelly? Everything, as I said,
the music, the museums, thefestivals, the people, the art,

(23:29):
the talent. I am just flooredby how much talent there is.
I do a little bit of alot, but I don't do anything one
hundred well. But what I loveis that I'm around so much talent,
and I love to support it andI feel inspired by it. So even
if I'm not the best at singingor the best at acting or the best
at painting, I feel like Ican be a part of that community just

(23:53):
because I'm trying and because they're welcomingme into it. Awesome and Matt any
thoughts relative to that queue, rightand exactly exactly what Kelly said. There's
so many talented people currently living inthe city, but the city also has
a long and storied history of anumber of creative residents, making this a

(24:17):
place that truly values the arts andthe culture. And to that point,
since we have this great history andthis great wealth of talent, you know,
all of our cultural institutions from fromthose kind of storied historic ones to
the smaller venues, they all consistentlypunch above their weight in terms of cities

(24:38):
of our sides across the country.So I would say, truly we have
it all here. Thank you,Matt. I want to express my gratitude
to Matt and Kelly for sharing yourinsight and experiences with us today. Your
work and shared passion and promoting arts, culture and community will inspire change through
our viewers action. So thank youboth for being here today. Thank you.
