Does This Season Get To You Too?

It is that time of year, including here in the Northeast, when the world around us is a riot of color. One can’t help feeling inspired by the autumnal jacket of bright reds, oranges, yellows, pinks and auburn set against the fading emerald of summer. Use that inspiration to create and plan for the coming months. As the slowdown of winter looms, having a full plate of artistic process and opportunity can warm and cheer you along the way. Here are some upcoming deadlines to get you motivated.
