## Resource

On this episode of the Friday Heaters podcast, we sit down with Abby Pucker—founder of the arts organization Gertie, headquartered in Chicago—and a close friend who’s building something we deeply believe in. Abby shares her path from Sotheby’s and UTA to returning home to Chicago to build Gertie—a platform rethinking how the art world can work by blending exhibitions, membership, and community into a more sustainable model. We get into the guts it takes to bet on your city, building outside of New York and LA, and what it really looks like to create something meaningful from scratch. A thoughtful conversation about art, entrepreneurship, and backing a new generation of patrons in Chicago and beyond.
