Art folks in their own words

And other new stuff in the sidebars

You may have noticed that we’ve been doing a bit of remodeling around here. In the process we’ve added a list of grant and competition deadlines to the (new) left sidebar. If you’re an agency that provides art grants, we’d like to list them. Please send us your deadline info.

Also the (trusty old) right sidebar now offers an index of some of our favorite interviews with and talks by art folks from The New England Journal of Aesthetic Research’s ever growing archives. Including these exciting characters listed below:
