GOOD TALK WITH JENNIFER WEIR
Producer & Featured Artist of FINDING HER BEAT

Expertise
My expertise is as a director, producer, and arts leader. I excel at creating space for artists, bringing good ideas to fruition, and bringing talented people together. I am a queer Korean adoptee, raised in North Dakota, who has ended up becoming a leader in the art of Japanese drumming in MN. I have had an interesting life journey, have founded a nonprofit arts organization, and can speak to how to develop a strong arts organization, how to direct collaborative projects, and how art, identity, and communinty intersect. I am a strong advocate for gender equity and Asian American pride and representation.
