They will be moderated by Creative Pinellas CEO Margaret Murray. \n\nOn Oct. 10\, Merritt Capurro and Stephanie Chill\, both Tampa Bay natives\, will talk about the role tourism plays in an arts destination like Pinellas County. The timing comes perfectly ahead of Art Everywhere: A Celebration of Culture & Creativity\, happening throughout the county Nov.1-Dec. 6. \nChill is a cultural programs and nonprofit professional whose work centers on connecting people through arts\, heritage\, and international exchange. As Executive Director of Clearwater Sister Cities\, Inc.\, she develops cultural programs and partnerships that create opportunities for residents and visitors to experience Clearwater’s international connections in meaningful ways. Her background spans public humanities\, museums\, heritage preservation\, and community-based programming\, including previous work as a Program Officer at Florida Humanities. Chill is currently leading Clearwater Illuminations: Lantern Festival and International Night Market\, a new cultural arts festival inspired in part by Clearwater’s sister-city relationship with Nagano\, Japan. The event\, taking place Dec. 6 at Coachman Park\, received funding from Creative Pinellas as part of Art Everywhere: A Celebration of Culture & Creativity. \nCapurro is known for stylized realism that uses bold color\, lifelike hands\, and rich symbolism to stir curiosity and conversation. Her signature Fruity Soirée series features hands bursting through the canvas to grasp fruit and liquid\, blurring the line between pleasure and surreal tension. With roots in costume & textile design alongside scenic mural work\, her art blends decades of technique with playful exploration. Whether creating large-scale murals or striking canvases\, she brings dramatic composition\, technical skill\, and just enough mischief to make you look twice.

In careers that balance precarity with creative freedom\, what does it mean to be nimble\, and how does an artist navigate their truest path forward. \n\nPalehorse is a traditional and digital artist known for his meticulous linework\, vivid color palettes\, and layered symbolic language. His work spans large-scale murals\, gallery installations\, branding\, print design and apparel. His artwork has been commissioned by global brands including National Geographic\, Nike\, FX\, Under Armour\, PepsiCo and Hasbro\, and he’s exhibited in galleries internationally including the renowned Dalí Museum. He has also designed officially licensed posters for artists such as Foo Fighters\, Queens of the Stone Age\, Jimi Hendrix and Rush. His art reflects a deep exploration of Buddhist\, Hindu\, Toltec\, and ancient indigenous philosophies\, centering his creative practice in his spirituality. He is the founder of Palehorse Designs and co-created\, with his wife Michelle Tannu\, the SHINE Mural Festival. Palehorse will unveil a new show\, Shapeshift: New and select works by Palehorse at the Morean Arts Center on Oct. 10.\n\n\nModder\, a Nigerian Sri Lankan artist born in Lagos and raised in Sri Lanka\, works figuratively in pen\, collage\, and digital media to portray larger-than-life Black\, female characters taking up space in real and imagined worlds. She presents a subjective Black woman’s fairytale to process interlocking structures of oppression\, creating monumental installations that fill entire gallery walls. In Modder’s world\, hair anchors the fable and symbolizes power\, beauty\, and vitality. She has exhibited in museums and galleries across the country\, include her current installation at Tampa Museum of Art and her 2025 exhibition at The Gallery at Creative Pinellas. She is an Assistant Professor of Art and Design at the University of Tampa.
