This will be a quick post as I'm up north and getting ready to make an early start home. The kids' gallery opening was fantastic: we had a huge crowd, and I was so, so happy for them. The work looks gorgeous on the walls, and so many people came to see it--parents, grandparents, neighbors, school staff. It's wonderful to see their commitment to art get so much respect.

. . . and now I'm off to hit the road . . .
