WE ALL HAVE TO PITCH IN

"We all have to pitch in" - President Obama said this during his state of the union address on 2/23/2009. If we truly want to grow and enhance our cultural past, present and future in this country they we need to make sure the arts remain a part of our everyday life. Times are tough and everyone is watching their bank account but now is not the time to pull back. Now is the time to dream big. We have never truly embraced art in this country yet not only can it be an emotional boost to our well being it can have a huge economic impact. Now is the time. Find an artist or gallery and support them through these difficult times. You will be happy you did. The attached photo is Ross Hall who lived in Sandpoint, Idaho during the early 1900's.
