I don’t know when it happened, but fall rolled into town earlier this month and seems to be rolling out already as the days get darker and wetter, and those beautiful, fire-kissed trees start shedding their leaves for the year.

In The Studio with Silas Finch – Lucy Gellman
Hey New Haveners! Lucy here, back from City Wide Open Studios’ “Transported Weekend” with a little report about an artist you may or may not know: Silas Finch, who opened his quirky and amazing shop of oddities up to the public last Saturday and Sunday. In theory, I’ve known Silas since last year, when I […]
Lifting Our Spirits – Lucy Gellman

If you don’t know the latter organization, which provides tuition-free music lessons to over 100 students, now’s your chance to get […]
