Though I don't intend to pour my heart and soul into visual arts coverage as I did with Central Illinois Visual Artist Galleries, I'm not walking away from friendships made during that effort and treasured today.

Prairie Art Alliance presents "Just Imagine"
at the H.D. Smith Gallery, Hoogland Center for the Arts
