Conversations: Lynne Green, Executive Director of Van Go

You've seen the Van Go art benches around town, but the Van Go programs encompass much more. On this edition of Conversations, I talk with Lynne Green, the founder and Executive Director of Van Go. The organization was formed 20 years ago as a mobile arts outreach to underserved 8-18 year olds. Since then, Van Go has grown into a nationally recognized, arts-based employment program for at-risk teens and young adults, 18-24. Green talks about the history of the organization, the services they offer to young people in Douglas County, and yes, we'll talk about those beautiful benches as well.


Dan Skinner is a former Director of Kansas Public Radio and the Audio-Reader Network. He is the host of KPR's Conversations program.
