Photographers, gallery co-curators, and dads Richard Colon and Quajay Donnell join host Emily Hessney Lynch for a conversation about photography, Rochester, community, and fatherhood. In the first half of the show, we discuss how photographing different parts of Rochester helped them get to know the city, their goals of prioritizing community over competition and uplifting underrepresented artists with Behind the Glass Gallery, and how normal it's become to meet people from the internet IRL. During the second half of our conversation, we explore their different experiences of fatherhood during different decades of their lives, how other dads just *get it*, and how sometimes you just have to bounce in the bounce house, even in your 40s.
