The Adventurous Art of Cultivating Place, with Peg & Awl
This week on Cultivating Place, we lean into the Art of CP, exploring how the act of Cultivating Place is artful, and how Art can be one our most beautiful acts of Cultivating Place.
How acts of Cultivating Place and acts of making Art both offer us the agency to create new worlds, or new versions of our current world.
These human impulses are simultaneously miraculous and represent the endless variations on life modeled to us by this world.
We’re in conversation with the deeply placed, curiosity, and art-based duo of Margaux and Walter Kent – visionaries behind the artful life resource known as Peg & Awl.
They’re joining us from their home, shop, studios, and five-acre wood in West Chester, PA. As Walter shares: “When I am not making something or making a place to make something, I feel lost or confused.” As Margaux writes: “The world is bursting with magic, and for anyone looking, it positively pulses!”
These two truths are among the many gifts given to us through our Cultivating Place and Artful practices. Listen in!
