Russell Granet: President & CEO of New 42

On this episode, I am joined by Russell Granet, the President and CEO of New 42. Russell and I talk about how New 42 quickly adapted its programming so that it was online by the Monday after the theatre shut down on Friday, March 13th. The staff took the weekend to reimagine what artistic and educational programming could look like online - which was the catalyst to the wildly popular Arts Break series.

New Victory Arts Break is New Victory’s free online arts curriculum designed for every kind of educator - including parents! - and has close to 800,000 viewers to date. You should check it out by going to NewVictory.org/ArtsBreak.

Russell and I also talk about how he leads during a global pandemic, what leadership lessons he has learned during this time, and why arts and education is so necessary, now more than ever.
