We are excited to announce the launch of the Back to School Podcast

The project brings alumni and friends of the UW School of Art + Art History + Design back to the art building to share their practices, insights, and reflections. In each episode, we welcome a special guest for an intimate conversation with host, Liz Copland, to reflect on their journey from being a student to the practitioner in their respective fields, and catch us up on their most recent projects and ideas. Our guests include talented and recognized artists, designers, curators, academics, recent graduates, and everyone in between. The podcast is produced in collaboration with the Alumni + Friends Group and is part of a series of efforts to reconnect with alumni through events and storytelling.

The pilot season (Season 01) launched in the spring of 2025 with episode 01 featuring Jerred Mace (BDes 2023). Season 01 includes six episodes with a new episode released each week. 

We hope that students, alumni, creatives, and art historians around the world can learn something new with us today. Find your seat, get your notebook, and welcome back to School!
