Awakening Creativity is a podcast from Midland Center for the Arts, hosted by CEO Matt Travis. Released monthly, each episode features an artist in conversation about the moments that spark creativity and how we carry it into our work, our relationships, and our everyday lives.

Whether you’re a lifelong creator or someone who “doesn’t feel creative,” this podcast is an invitation to get curious and remember: you already are.
