The Frist Center for the Visual Arts has begun podcasting and is among the first, if not THE first, major visual arts institutions to utilize this new medium. A real breakthrough in the art world, the Frist’s initial podcasts feature a discussion of one of their new exhibitions, and other podcasts include visits with budding artists and an architectural overview of the Frist Center. Expect to see other fine arts podcasts from the Frist such as gallery lectures, sightseeing tours of exhibitions and "audio eavesdropping" of their summer camps for kids. It's refreshing to see members of the fine arts community embracing this new format, and we hope this is a sign of great things to come.The Frist Center’s podcasts are available on their website as well as listed on GalleryCast.com, a voter-driven guide for museum and gallery podcasts founded by Mary Mancini, Tim Moses and Bill Butler (who helped with the podcast project).
