Sketches of Thoughts

Mmm hmm, that's right.

I had a great day professionally yesterday. I attended a workshop about arts access. The panel included arts professionals and several artists with disabilities - one blind panelist, one confined to a wheelchair, another who walks with crutches and a sign language interpreter. The group discussed the Americans with Diasbilities Act and how those accomodations are a starting place, but there's still a long way to go to making the arts accessible to diverse populations. So, thanks to the event organizers. I'm looking forward to more workshops that focus on how the arts really can be for everyone. (As they should be, of course!)

After weeks of life at a standstill, the ball is finally rolling on a few exciting projects. Here's a few current exciting happenings: Pete successfully defended his master's thesis; I'm hosting a small group at our house this evening; and the weekend is within grasp.

Plus yesterday I got a really cool dress. When all else fails, it still pays to look (and feel) good. It's an instant attitude adjustment.
