by Amber Helsel  I've done art in some shape or capacity for pretty much my whole life. I started taking art classes in seventh grade, and then took them all through high school. I was even in Advanced Placement art in senior year, and received a score of four out of five on my final portfolio. I won silver keys in the 2006 Scholastic Arts & Writing Awards competition for my photography.

by Donna Ladd  I write this three days after the presidential election as division roils our nation. It's pretty depressing whether you're reading Facebook posts or listening to your staff and loved ones express fears of what the future will be like for them. This week, and I suspect for the next four years, I'm trying to show love and support to as many people as possible who are scared and stressed out by the state of our nation.
