For some reason the internet wasn't cooperating yesterday, many apologies if the Wordless News email didn't hit your inbox. Everything should be fixed shortly!
I'm traveling to DC this morning to speak at CIS and do a Wordless News workshop with some fantastic high school students! There wont' be any Wordless News today since I'll be in flying, but the news will be back tomorrow morning. Happy Thursday!

Friends!
It's the happiest creative day of the year. I'll be taking a break from Wordless News today and tomorrow to participate in a 24 hour work day. If you aren't familiar with CreateAthon you can read all about it here. Essentially, it's a 24 hour creative blitz for nonprofits.
This morning at 8:00am I'll find out which team I'm on, who the client will be and we'll get started. Tomorrow morning the client will come in and we'll present all the things we worked on for them. And they can take everything home for free.
Due to travel for a family wedding and a little birthday personal celebration, Wordless News is paused today. The news will return on Monday, October 20th.
Cheers,
Maria
This is public speaking — on the inside.
I am both excited and nervous to announce a few upcoming speaking engagements and solo shows! I hope to see familiar faces and make new friends at all of these events. I'll add to this list as other things firm up on my calendar.

This is a two-day workshop for educators and students. This conference is hosted by NAEA/NAHS so I'll be workshopping with High school teachers and educators!

I'll be showing work from Wordless News in the Lipscomb Gallery and speaking to the school as well as working in the afternoon with the students. I am so, so excited to return the Governor's School as an Alumni.
Wordless News is taking a day off to recharge. The news will return on Monday morning.
Happy Weekend,
Maria
