I make art, specifically collages, and am a big fan of sending and receiving written letters, which I think is a lost art. I’m really excited that we have opened up our program to folks with DACA status (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals). We have about 10 open positions right now.

I heard Frank Warren speak at the American Visionary Art Museum. In 2004, for DC’s Art-o-Matic community show, he initiated an experiment called PostSecret. Each secret can be a regret, hope, funny experience, unseen kindness, fantasy, belief, fear, betrayal, erotic desire, feeling, confession, or childhood humiliation.

It’s part art and part science. There are plenty of ordinary happenings that can grab a headline, such as your nonprofit’s annual student art contest or upcoming 5K.

Writing is an art people can do well if they practice.

Sheroes in the Arts. Despite her family's affluence, Lorraine Hansberry's childhood in Chicago during the 1930s was not without hardship, discrimination, and segregation. Gentileschi is remembered, however, as an accomplished Baroque artist whose trials did not define her art. Are you inspired by women in the arts?

The exhibition is varied, lively, and the art is of high quality. It feels like a vibrant art show. One year after the competition was announced, the exhibition opened.
