Jordana Vasquez on Starting WOC/CS, Grassroots Public Art, and Being Curious
This week on First Coat we have Jordana Vasquez. Jordana and I met at a Placemaking conference a few years ago and we've stayed in touch ever since. Jordana studied architecture and has worked in design, art, community development, and sustainability. She recently co-founded the Women of Color Collective in Sustainability (WOC/CS), which facilitates strategic exchanges between Black, Indigenous, People of Color (BIPOC) sustainability pioneers, climate justice organizers, and advocacy groups to fight inequity and address climate change.
On this episode we talk about how she and her co-founder started WOC/CS, her experience leading a grassroots public art project, her project Urbanonsite, and what it's like to be the only woman of color in the room. We brainstorm business development, for both Distill Creative and WOC/CS and how we're creating our directories. Jordana also shares how to use a personal project to connect with change-makers and artists around the world, thoughts on the role of public art, how to collaborate with sustainability organizations, and tips for career development.
