ARTIST SPOTLIGHT:

Emily Andrews

"Emily’s love of art stems from the emotion it invokes. She says, “it has a way of making you feel something even if you don’t know why you’re feeling it. It has the ability to completely draw you in and capture your attention and get you thinking about things that you otherwise might not have thought about.”

BOOK REVIEW:

The Perks of Being a Wallflower

"Each character in this story brings their own unique perspective on growing up. From self-love, finding your voice, running from shame, and learning love is more than just heartbreak, Charlie takes the reader on a silent adventure through his eyes as a quiet wallflower in a very loud world."
