Jay Salinas is the director of special projects at the Wormfarm Institute near Reedsburg, Wis. The organization began with artist residencies and is now at the center of a wide variety of projects that blend farming and artistic practice, including Fermentation Fest (an annual celebration of food and art) and D-Tour, a rural public art project. Wormfarm’s efforts have been recognized and funded through prestigious ArtPlace and NEA Our Town grants. We spoke with Jay at Central Time Centric, a symposium on socially engaged art recently held at Plains Art Museum.
