The Staple

Arts & Culture

An Arts & Culture podcast presented by the IPRC, and produced by Sunny Bleckinger. Experimental audio portraits of the makers of art and the shakers of culture in Portland and beyond. The Independent Publishing Resource Center's mission is to facilitate creative expression, identity and community by providing individual access to tools and resources for creating independently published media and artwork. We've empowered thousands of people to create and publish their own artwork, writing, zines, books, websites, comics, graphic novels... and now audio! We've helped community members find their artistic voices, especially disenfranchised youth (including GLBT, minority, at-risk, and homeless youth) whose lifestyles and experiences tend to be marginalized in the major media.
