It's had, you know, not just an impact on the locations that you're bringing it to, but I mean everybody's seeing it and feeling it, and it's...people reaching people outside of the community.
How can a giant spoon spark a nationwide conversation about the opioid crisis? In this episode of 'Collateral Damage', hosts Maureen Cavanagh and Michael Wilson sit down with artist Domenic Esposito to discuss his provocative Opioid Spoon Project.

By blending art with activism, Esposito aims to ignite tough conversations and inspire change. Tune in for an eye-opening discussion that highlights the intersection of creativity and social justice.
