À propos de cet audio

What do old Pizza Huts, small-town entrepreneurship, and the American dream have in common? In this episode of Small Town Big Arts, we sit down with filmmakers Matthew Salleh and Rose Tucker, creators of the documentary Slice of Life: The American Dream. In Former Pizza Huts.

Traveling across the country—from Texas to Illinois—Salleh and Tucker uncover how communities breathe new life into familiar spaces, transforming once-iconic red-roofed pizza parlors into churches, dispensaries, community hubs, and more. Together, we explore how reuse becomes a form of storytelling, how entrepreneurship echoes artistic practice, and what it means to represent small towns on screen with honesty and respect.

Whether you’re an artist making work about a small community or simply fascinated by the ingenuity that defines small town America, this conversation explores how "outsiders" can explore how smaller communities build, adapt, and dream. Join us for a thoughtful look at place, identity, and the creative spirit that turns empty buildings—and entire towns—into canvases of possibility.
