I Create As A Mother: Jude Kusnierz

I Create As A Mother, Episode 2 of As A Mother, features Jude Kusnierz, the driving force behind the creation of The Beaumont Studios Artist Society — a multi-dimensional art studio supporting Vancouver's creative sector. Throughout the pandemic, Jude stayed nimble to keep the arts and the Beaumont alive and thriving, for many artists who call it home, including herself.

In I Create As A Mother, Christine enters Jude’s world. We hear the story of a creator, artist and mother raising her daughter "on the end of her desk at the Beaumont", and her creative ability to pivot her business in order to support Vancouver's creative scene and local artists, while still paying her property taxes.

VancouverMom.ca's As A Mother Series is partially funded by a Government of Canada Heritage grant, which supports communities through arts and heritage and is made possible in part by the Government of Canada. All episodes are thoughtfully recorded and produced by Kahani Pictures and hosted by VancouverMom.ca founder Christine Pilkington.
