I want to take this opportunity to express my deepest gratitude to all of my customers and artists for your continued support. Now, more than ever, I recognize the unique privilege that I have been given. During this time of personal re-assessment we must continue to be inspired by the joy of creativity. It is a source of personal nourishment that should continue throughout our lives. Whether I'm assisting a young customer who is buying her first beads or visiting with Mary Tompkins, a vibrant 87-year old stoneware artist -- I see the joy of creating. I am lucky beyond measure that I have been able to work with all of you in this project, and to Dennis and Aaron -- Thank you for your amazing support, encouragement and love.
