Emily Rose Olsson and Dr Crystal Bujol
Emily Rose Olsson, a star of the upcoming "Alumni Showcase" at Riverside Theatre, joins the show to tell us how this showcase of talent is raising funds for the Riverside Theatre for Kids’ tuition assistance program on Thursday, July 17th. Dr. Crystal Bujol also joins the show to tell us about how she discovered the Treasure Coast area and about the Gifford Youth Orchestra.
I began covering the arts on Florida's Treasure Coast almost 25 years ago after working in Miami with WTMI-FM. Before Miami, I spent 16 unforgettable years in the U.S. Virgin Islands, getting my feet wet in broadcasting at WVWI, as program director and host of a radio talk show, and learning how to live in the Caribbean - not easy but so worth the effort.When I made my way north to the Treasure Coast, I landed at WQCS, the regional NPR affiliate, producing Arts Spotlight and arts-related special programs for 15 years or so. I tried retirement, but that wasn't for me. Soon I was tapped to produce a weekly radio segment for the Cultural Council of Indian River County. My arts coverage spilled over from radio to print when I was asked to write an arts and entertainment column for TCPalm.com. At the end of 2018, I tried retirement again, and immediately realized there was no retiring from spreading the word about the wealth of arts, culture, and entertainment we have to offer.Over the years, I've met hundreds of interesting and talented people and discovered places to go and things to do that I just have to share.
