is such a wistful time. Let’s give ourselves some grace and step away from our screens. You really don’t need another email (including this one)!

Rest Those Eyes
If you’re not looking at your phone, laptop, computer or tablet, what do you want to be looking at?

Mass MoCA (Museum of Contemporary Art)
currently has a fascinating immersive installation called The Plastic Bag Store. Highly recommend! It’s an eye-opening way to see things differently.
