Julie passed Rich’s name along to me, and I’m tremendously excited to be featuring him and his organization, Art Is The Cure. Art Is The Cure helps people deal with pretty much any kind of problem imaginable as a positive release of pain and emotion through creative releases. Rich had this to say about how he got started:

What ends up on this blog is determined in large part by you. Since time travel isn't (yet) an option, I can't be everywhere at once. That means, when you meet an artist or when you hear about an event that has a social justice slant, I need you to pass that info along to me.
Send any other comments or questions along, as well. I'm always happy to hear from you. Besides, the interwebs can be lonely sometimes...
