Meet This Artist: Lisa Fedele, Fostering Creativity, Collaboration, and Innovation

Smiling woman in glasses and a black jacket. Standing with collection of folk art.

There’s a direct line for me between entrepreneurship, innovation, and creativity. So I think it’s a really important thing to evangelize.Look at my father, who had a third grade education. My father was a diesel mechanic, but at his core he was an artist and a maker. I think about how many kids, very much like my father, don’t know that creativity is a path out of poverty, a path to the world. I want to help people realize that your choice isn’t between working in retail or working at a plant. Entrepreneurship is a choice. Creativity is a driver.
