Ella Ashwill (the ERA, equity for artists, building bridges)

Conversation Piece with Patrick Armstrong

On this week’s episode of Conversation Piece, Ella Ashwill, CEO and founder of the ERA, joins the show to talk about equitable artist representation, how to get it, and where we're at now. Ella shares her journey from Indiana to California and back and how the numerous roles she's played throughout her career have helped inform her approach to her work consulting for artists. She also talks about getting involved with the Indianapolis creative community and why it's so important we're building bridges between artist and organization. Come for the random, small world friend group stuff, stay for the conversation.
