Kelly Dew and John Pelphrey met in a British Lit class at Belmont University in Nashville 13 years ago. She was a painter and he was majoring in business. After insulting her by suggesting that he put her work on a coffee mug, they fell in love. In 2009 they opened their art gallery, LabourLove Gallery in Durham's Golden Belt. Their business plan includes retail, classes, art slams and lectures. So far, they're making it work in this difficult economy. As part of our "Money Talks" series, John Pelphrey and Kelly Dew join host Frank Stasio and reveal the secret of making art for love and profit.
