Some say New York City stories are found in the most unlikely places and sometimes right in front of your eyes or right in front of your door. Sara Leeds has discovered just that with her social media series, Doorman Stories, where she interviews the city’s residential doormen, bouncers, and more. On this episode, we discussed the series, Sara’s personal social media journey, and why we love telling and sharing stories.

During my quest to visit every museum in New York City, I’ve met some incredible people who work behind the scenes at some of my favorite institutions including today’s guest Karen Vidangos. She serves as the Social Media Manager at the Guggenheim Museum in New York City. Karen also elevates other Latinx perspectives in the arts with her social media account @latinainmuseums and by founding the Latinx Art Collective. It was so great to chat with Karen about her work, how she got into the field, and how we can encourage other institutions to present more diverse work.

The opening of the Perelman Performing Arts Center (PACNYC) in Lower Manhattan this past fall was a really magical thing to see. And you’re probably hearing all about it through its viral production of Cats: The Jellicle Ball running now through September 8 (it got extended again after recording this episode)! For this episode, I got to chat with Miranda Palumbo, the Director of Digital Content at PACNYC about building a new cultural institution, how to create a brand, and of course, Cats.
