Creative Money ATX
I am Bri Landry and I grew up in Austin, Texas. I have seen the skyscrapers go up with the cost of living. Austin has always been a place for creatives and I want to find out how we can keep it that way. In this podcast, I will be talking to local artists to find out how they are affording Austin. I want to talk about money, successes, and failures. What does it take to make a living off your art in Austin?
