In this episode of Community Ties, host Romney Donald sits down with Norwalk native and artist Jahmane Artz, whose work spans painting, photography, fashion, and large-scale murals. Together, they explore his artistic journey, the inspirations behind his themes of spirituality, mythology, and social awareness, and the role of public art in shaping community identity. The conversation also touches on recent frustrations around the Ely Avenue mural selection process and what a more equitable approach to public art could look like. More than anything, this episode highlights the power of creativity to spark dialogue, build pride, and strengthen the ties that connect us in Norwalk.
