Love this, Emily! (We're starting new, public-facing things in the Center - better than just feeling shitty about it all)

Totes. I think because there is so little any individual can do at this moment, we have to just keep making the work and doing the things. Otherwise, despair is such a big hole.

Yes. All that. Make art. Make friends. Make soup. Make waves. Make a difference.

Speaking of art - and, yes, let's also look at art and read - do you know the Salt Book? A book physically remade into art, yet still in the collection of a library. Is it a book? Is it art? The answer is yes.

Thinking about art, thinking about writing, thinking about reading. Making art, writing, reading. Getting through day by day.

Thanks for this, Emily.

We were in NYC in October, visiting one of our daughters, saw it IRL. It's even more amazing than the photos and video.
