ArtRoot

ArtRoot is a collaboration of artists and arts advocates who are determined to reinvigorate Racine, Wisconsin through the arts.

Our vision is transformative: Racine will be an arts activator that nurtures collaborative creative networks which sustain an inclusive, innovative and flourishing community. It is a tall order, but we think that by bringing together the people who drive the arts in and around Racine, starting with conversation and working together towards common goals, this bold future can become a reality.

It is with great pleasure that we announce our 21st ArtRoot Writer-In-Residence: Emma Widmar!

Emma is a writer, artist, and tireless volunteer. Her Professional Communications degree from Gateway Technical College earned her a journalism internship at Racine County Eye, then a full-time reporting position. She’s also worked as co-anchor of TMJ4 News’ Racine Roundup.

Emma believes that storytelling serves as a bridge to help promote empathy. By generously sharing her own story as a disabled person, she’s become an advocate for acceptance and understanding in our community. During her tenure as ArtRoot’s Writer-in-Residence, you can find her writing at The Inclusive Bean and read her weekly blog posts at racinewir.com.

Congratulations to Emma and a huge thank you to our most recent ArtRoot Writer-In-Residence, Jay Mollerskov.
