You don’t know that your track lighting is the reason we have black out shades. But you might know the way to enlightenment now. Glad to only be able to see your ceiling, and imagine your writer’s life free from the mundane. You are another alley neighbor #withoutblinds.

In partnership with @BUVisualArts Tuesday Night MFA Lecture Series, we are delighted to host a discussion with artist and cultural worker, Kate Gilbert (@KGilbertStudio) of @now_and_there. Join us! 🗓️ October 27 ⏰ 7:30-9PM 📍 #BSASpace architects.org/events/505967/…

The cat stays motionless, staring at you, wait to play. You eat chips, one at a time, while watching two programs. The one on your phone holds all of your attention. Eventually, kitty walks away. You reach and drink from a can. You are my new alley neighbor with #noblinds.

@CathyJEdwards @Art_Design_Love Thank you for your leadership! You have forever changed NEFA and I’m grateful for all I’ve learned from you…and our good times too!🍾

Yes to this ⬇️. Collective advocacy + cash to BIPOC arts orgs already doing the CONSISTENT work, meeting community need & creating WELCOMING experiences. (Still processing the Culture + Community study hosted by @SloverLinett @BarrFdn & @ArtsinBoston at the @BPLBoston)

Writing of how creativity animates Black self determination and helps us see possibility in an era of violent white supremacist, Elizabeth Alexandra writes, “Artists make radical solutions all day long...We bring it into community.” #TrayvonGeneration is a must read! @ProfessorEA

What an honor to have watched ideas be birthed over the last 6 months and now to journey once more with the artists during the final jury of the #publicartaccelerator with @now_and_there. News of funding next week…💵 #localartistfunding

Anyone else see the underlying “banality of evil” similarity between totalitarian Xi’an approach and US’s unvaccinated personal freedom? #HannahArendt definition: “an extraordinary diligence in looking out for his personal advancement.” #omicron @NYTimes nytimes.com/2022/01/12/bus…

One of the greatest tests of “me vs we” is Christmas tree disposal night in a multi-family dwelling. #whocleansup #empathy #communalliving

Taking personal accountability to a new level and making space for reflection with a Google Form and a monthly calendar alert. #nerdalert #2022goals #coursecorrection 🤓✨

Art and artists do it for less, without hurling through space. “The best way to access this everyday awe is by allowing yourself to wander, to avoid following a schedule each moment of the day.” Dasher Keltner #everydayawe #cultivateawe @NYTOpinion nytimes.com/2021/11/27/opi…

Book club anyone? #1619project “We may need, instead, legislation that requires us to study divisive concepts, beginning with the most basic one of all: All men are created equal.” - Jake Silverstein ⁦@nytimesarts⁩ nytimes.com/2021/11/09/mag…

“Find the thing that matters to you and defend it.” ⁦@nhannahjones⁩ speaking tonight at ⁦@maamboston⁩ about the need for art + activism in the work of telling the truth of slavery, the US’s oldest institution, and fighting for the truth. #1619project
