Can artists make it in New York City anymore?

Can you make it as a working-class New York City artist in the 21st century? That's a question a lot of local artists were asking at a forum hosted by Hunter College this week.

It was called, 'We The People: A Forum on Working-Class Artists in America.' Gregory Mosher, the executive director of the Office of the Arts at Hunter College joins Weekend Edition host David Furst to talk about the challenges artists face in New York City.
