{"id":88,"name":"Emily Puthoff","url":"","description":"Emily Puthoff is an artist who, when not advocating for bees, is traveling the country with her custom-built teardrop trailer with her partner, Elena Sniezek, to converse with people about their ideas of progress. She is an educator and accidental bee enthusiast. In 2013, she assigned her students to create a sculpture for bees and invited a local biodynamic beekeeper to her class to speak about bees. She was instantly enthralled with bees and astonished by their importance to our eco-systemic health and food shed. \r\n\r\nIn 2016, she co-founded the Hudson Valley Bee Habitat (HVBH), an arts organization located in Kingston, NY.  The HVBH\u2019s mission is to pollinate community engagement with the environment and each other through the arts, bees, and mindfulness. HVBH is working in collaboration with the emerging Kingston Greenline to create the Kingston Bee-Line, a series of artist-designed bee habitats and artist-led community engagements along the Greenline.","link":"https:\/\/www.artsjournal.com\/fieldnotes\/author\/emily-puthoff\/","slug":"emily-puthoff","avatar_urls":{"24":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/8ac7bb0feb19f05ebd2bfc9b91bc48f2548b7b9e2a687da195fca255209de228?s=24&d=mm&r=g","48":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/8ac7bb0feb19f05ebd2bfc9b91bc48f2548b7b9e2a687da195fca255209de228?s=48&d=mm&r=g","96":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/8ac7bb0feb19f05ebd2bfc9b91bc48f2548b7b9e2a687da195fca255209de228?s=96&d=mm&r=g","128":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/8ac7bb0feb19f05ebd2bfc9b91bc48f2548b7b9e2a687da195fca255209de228?s=128&d=mm&r=g"},"meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.artsjournal.com\/fieldnotes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/88","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.artsjournal.com\/fieldnotes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users"}]}}
