Summary

In this special episode, we make space to honor the memory of Adé Hogue, who we lost in October, 2021. Adé was a phenomenal lettering artist and designer with an incredible, authentic spirit. Adé cared so passionately about the communities he was a part of, bringing that energy into all of his work. That work will continue through the initiatives at the Adé Hogue Foundation, a non-profit forming in his name and honor. You can support and stay in the loop here: https://www.instagram.com/adehoguefoundation/ We hope you enjoy this conversation with Adé, where he openly shares some great insights about his experiences within his creative practice. We miss you and love you, Adé.
