We Create Birmingham: Ursula Smith
"I can’t just teach dance. I use dance to teach life."
"I can’t just teach dance. I use dance to teach life."
"Also, quilts mark a place and time in something tangible. They link generations together and connect us in surprising ways. Textile art has the ability to break down barriers because you can see it and analyze it independently while embracing its warmth, humanity, and history."
Duquette and Morgan Johnston are the husband and wife team behind Woodlawn’s welcoming and eclectic boutique Club Duquette. The Johnstons share with us their response to the coronavirus pandemic, its effect on their store operations, Morgan’s art, musician Duquette’s touring and writing, and how the two are finding opportunities to step up in our community. https://youtu.be/bLt5zhN-O0M
“Birmingham is on the precipice of something really great and it’s only going to sustain and grow if we each support these things, encourage these things and share these thing”
