Dear friends and collaborators,
We hope that you and those you love are staying well during these surreal and difficult times. We’re excited to share this special series of newsletters to spark creativity, offer comfort and respite, and keep our community connected. Each one will include readings and experiences, small positive actions we can take, and prompts to spark the imagination. This week, we are all about food!
Let’s connect. We want to hear from you! Let us know what you are doing to persist through social distancing.
