OHMYGOSH, I was just in Savannah and had no idea what I was missing at Starlandia (and THAT RETREAT! Yes, please, a write-up!!)!! Next time, for sure!! (Esp. if my kiddo ends up at SCAD like it's increasingly seeming is quite possible!)

And, YES, I love art thrift shops so much! There's one in Nashville that I adore (not far from the Opry) called Smart Art - https://smartartandcraft.org/ - and my favorite around here, is Seattle Recreative (you'll want the Greenwood store, IMHO). https://www.seattlerecreative.org/

Thanks for the additional art thrift shop recommendations! New ones for me to check out, and just mentioning Seattle makes me want to get on a plane and go to there right now.

The retreat was… incredible. Did you happen to go to the Disney ride-style animated history of SCAD show in the back of the bookstore? If you didn’t… you need to check it out next time.

First, yes, come to Seattle sometime!! That would be super fun! And re: the SCADstory experience, yes, we did! Ha ha! That was super unexpected and fun.

I wish there was a second hand art supply shop close to me, such a great way to spice up one’s sketchbook practice 🌟

I'm definitely going to check out that shop next time I'm in Chicago, Jen!
