WHYsconsin: What's With Wisconsin's Artist Environments?
We answer and audience question about why there’s such a high concentration of outdoor artist-built “environments” in Wisconsin, and learn about a new arts center dedicated to preserving and showcasing this type of ‘outside’ — but not necessarily ‘outsider’ art.
This segment was inspired by an audience question as part of the WHYsconsin project. Submit your question at wpr.org/WHYsconsin and we might answer it in a future story.
