Crafting a Moment

Beautiful community dinners by candlelight dazzle attendees with atmosphere and great company, but what is really behind these events. Crafting a Moment, a new post on the art:21 blog, takes a look at what makes a social event art and what makes it craft.

The new post, The Summer Slump, is up on the art:21 blog today. It takes a look at the time between an M.F.A.'s first and second years. This is a time that seems to exist in two different time signatures... the days seem to creep by, accentuating every decision and activity. Meanwhile, the next year simultaneously races closer and closer. Living in this alternate time-space presents a slew of interesting life questions. What part of your life takes precedence? How are you spending your summer?
