Annie Dugan is thinking a couple of thoughts she's pretty sure other people share:

1) I wonder if it will be easier to make the case for the importance of the arts and arts funding when this is over?

2) Grade-school teachers absolutely deserve three months off.

Plus some virtual content you might enjoy including a video series from the Tweed Museum of Art a few years back (search for "Featured Works"), a live tour of AICHO's Indigenous First: Art & Gift Shop, and a look at a new online series (this time, Andy Messerschmidt's “Creepy Crawl”) from the Duluth Art Institute.
