Happy Pride, Classmates and welcome back to ART CLASS! We're back to our regularly scheduled programming this week with two fantastic conversations for you to enjoy. First, we're joined by the fabulous and talented Giselle Byrd, Executive Director of The Theater Offensive in Boston and the first Black trans woman to hold such a title at an American theater company.

Then Career Day is back! We're joined by esteemed artist and author Shawn Martinbrough, who'll teach us all about breaking into the comic book industry. Plus, the Morning Announcements with Emilia, a nerdy little PBJ for your soul, and we'll be joined all show by our dear, dear friend and Lincoln Center colleague, Frankie Charles!
