Southampton Art Center’s mission is building community through the Arts, and we are delighted to once again collaborate with ART & SOUL: Hamptons and our neighbors at SAAM and Ma’s House to welcome all to the center and engage with us!” says Strassfield.
The third and final stop of the art walk will be at Hidden Gem NY, a home decor and lifestyle boutique owned by sisters Tanya Willock and Temidra Willock-Morsch. After visiting the vibrant art organizations in Southampton, a private brunch will be co-hosted by Brown Skin Brunchin’.
The festival wraps up with an opening reception to celebrate artist Alvin Clayton‘s residency at the Southampton African American Museum, which is available for viewing through October 2024.

Press Release
After The Fall Show Podcast Launches, Expanding Street Therapy to help a Global Audience
Icarus Works, founded by Dean Cooper (also known as Icarus), has announced the launch of After The Fall Show, a new podcast exploring real stories of burnout, recovery and transformation. Following recent media features of its founder on BBC Cornwall, BBC England and Cornwall Live, the show brings lived experience to conversations around mental health, addiction and rebuilding. Built on the Street Therapy approach, it offers both honest stories and practical insight into change — charting the journey from survival to sustainable growth.
Cornwall, Cornwall, United Kingdom, 3rd Apr 2026 – Icarus Works, founded by Dean Cooper (also known as Icarus), has officially launched the “After The Fall Show”, a podcast focused on real stories of burnout, recovery and transformation.

The show is built around a simple but powerful structure — exploring the rise, the fall, the lowest point, and what it truly takes to rebuild. Each episode features individuals from diverse backgrounds who have faced significant life challenges, including mental health struggles, addiction, trauma, disability and personal crisis.
Unlike traditional self-help content, After The Fall Show focuses on lived experience and honest reflection rather than surface-level motivation.
“This isn’t a polished version of life,” said Cooper. “It’s real people, real stories, and real turning points. It’s raw at times, but it brings hope in a way few things can. It’s human.”

Dean Cooper, a Cornwall-based father and creator of the Street Therapy approach, previously gained recognition following media coverage of his personal recovery journey after experiencing severe burnout and health complications. His story was featured on BBC Cornwall, BBC England and regional publication Cornwall Live.
Building on that experience, Cooper developed Street Therapy — a practical, accessible approach to recovery based on walking, reflection and human connection. The podcast represents an expansion of that philosophy into a broader platform designed to reach and support others.
After The Fall Show brings together voices from across society, sharing stories of individuals who have faced adversity and rebuilt their lives. Each guest discusses not only what happened, but what changed — including the mindset shifts, decisions and turning points that enabled them to move forward.
“Every single person has fractures,” Cooper said. “What matters is what we do next.”
Alongside the main podcast, a companion series titled “After The Fall: After Dark” provides deeper discussion, including insights from professionals and specialists. The aftershow aims to bridge the gap between storytelling and practical guidance, offering listeners actionable perspectives on recovery and personal change.
The podcast is part of a wider initiative under Icarus Works, which includes the continued development of the Street Therapy approach, upcoming written works, and community-focused projects aimed at supporting mental health, addiction and personal transformation.
After The Fall Show is now available across major platforms including Spotify, Apple Podcasts, YouTube, Amazon Music, TuneIn and Deezer.

Individuals with compelling personal stories of recovery and transformation are invited to apply to be featured on the show:
