June opportunities ☀️
A newsletter about writing, art and living more creatively
Hi friends,
Easing into summer, so I'm keeping this newsletter short. (And also May was busy and went by too quickly?!)
Do we like this new format (see below?) Suggestions/comments?
In my recent work, I wrote about:
Lolly Lolly Ceramics, created by Lalese Stamps
Aram Han Sifuentes' textile work, rooted in activism
Your favorite small but feisty writer,
