Creativity on Tap

Episode 2: Craig Rice and Jes Reyes

COMPAS Season 1 Episode 2

Creativity on Tap is produced by COMPAS, an arts education nonprofit that makes creativity accessible to all Minnesotans by providing participatory creative experiences.

In each episode, Creativity on Tap brings together educators, entrepreneurs, elected officials, parents, and other community leaders to discuss creativity and answer the question: What is creativity, and how can it solve the unique challenges facing today's world?

In this episode, host Frank Sentwali chats with guests Craig Rice, an award-winning producer and director,  and Jes Reyes, COMPAS Arts Program Manager and interdisciplinary artist, artist organizer,  and teaching artist. They discuss the important role creativity has played in their lives and how they have successfully built lives and careers around their artistry.

Creativity On Tap is part of Creativity Saves the World, a year-long initiative led by COMPAS. Its mission is to explore, celebrate, and emphasize the pivotal role creativity can and must play in shaping a world that prioritizes equity, justice, and inclusivity.

Theme music, "Krank It" was produced by COMPAS Teaching Artist Bionik
