Vermont Public
Liza Phillip has created art across Vermont, including this mural on the side of Bethel Elementary School in southern Vermont, which they painted with a group of students.

Liza Phillip is a biracial queer nonbinary Burlington artist who paints and sings songs on the ukulele as a way to celebrate life beyond traditional racial and gender binaries.

This hour, we'll listen to a recent episode of Homegoings, a special series from Brave Little State that features conversations with artists of color who live in Vermont about Black grief, resilience and music. Follow the series here.

Burlington artist Liza Phillip will be joining other talented folks from the Homegoings series for a live performance on Saturday, February 11, at 7 p.m., at Spruce Peak Arts, in Stowe.
