Stellene Volandes is a renaissance woman of communication — author, editor, curator, style director, public speaker, and more. As Editor-in-Chief of America's oldest continually published general-interest magazine, Volandes values roots while keeping her eyes and ears on the horizon. "Town & Country" reflects the accomplishments, tastes, amusement, and passions of modern society. Under Volandes's stewardship, the publication has embraced the 21st-century mindset and lifted stories of compassion, philanthropy, and joy. Among her expertise in many subjects, Volandes is an inspiring raconteur of jewelry. Her upcoming book, "Jewels That Made History," unearths tales of wearable art and celebrates what transforms a cloudy rock into a precious gem. In her first visit to SCAD, Volandes zoomed with Paula Wallace on a live broadcast to SCAD students. As you're about to hear for yourself, Volandes's mentorship and thought leadership applies across disciplines and benefits creatives of any experience.
