DSM Speaks Audio Tour with Abe Goldstien, Community Member
Run Time: 43 seconds
Recorded by Abe Goldstien, CultureALL Community Ambassador / 2022
Abe Goldstien Bio
Having retired from a 40+ year career in advertising, Abe happily spends his days volunteering at Moore Elementary School in Des Moines. Somehow, he still manages to pursue his passions: promoting and writing about jazz, including a weekly radio show; playing the accordion; educating people about the Jewish religion and Yiddish culture; and doing freelance advertising projects for a variety of clients. But in Abe’s world, there is still time to try something new, like the Des Moines Speaks project.
DES MOINES SPEAKS
DSM Speaks are short audio reflections on artwork in our permanent collection, written and voiced by diverse members of our community. Contributors to this program were selected in partnership with CultureALL and the Des Moines Art Center. We hope by elevating these diverse ways of seeing we can encourage all visitors to connect more deeply and to see themselves and their identities within our walls.
