FM #1129 - Artsy Box Project -Part 2 of 2: Molly Dee

Published on: 9th January, 2024

This session of the radio show shares my recorded conversation with Molly Dee. Molly is one of the artists who were selected for the Franklin Cultural District Artsy Box Project. The Artsy Box Project is now fully visible in and around downtown Franklin.

This is the second of a 2 part series. This is my conversation with Molly Dee. She is the artist who did the utility box at the corner near the former Davis Thayer School. It was good to talk with Molly. She surprised me with an answer to a simple question. 

The show notes contain links to the photos showing the before, in process, and finished works.

I hope you learn something about their art and appreciate a little more about the role of art in Franklin.

Let’s listen to my conversation with Molly

The first part is my conversation with Shilpa Adduri, Jeni LaBollita, and Julia Dwinell. These three conversations were recorded before the Artsy Box painting started (April 2023). Each artist provided some of their background, about their work, and in particular on their Artsy Box project.  The Recording of Part 1 ->
