Molly Lackey is social media and special projects assistant at the Concordia Historical Institute in Saint Louis, Missouri, and author of Confessing Jesus: The Heart of Being a Lutheran.

In this “Conversations with Creatives” episode, Molly nerds out with the Ladies about “cottage core,” Japanese artist Sadao Watanabe, archival photographs and artifacts, fonts and paint colors, the history of LCMS missions, and much more.

What wall paint colors pair well with an exhibit of Japanese wood cut prints? What does one do with a triple major in history, German, and Latin? What makes watercolor painting less “scary” than oils? What’s the weirdest artifact currently housed at CHI? Find answers to these and other burning questions you never thought to ask in this lively and often hilarious conversation.
