Art Chowder November | December, Issue 24 | Page 4

From the Publisher Dean Cameron The fun is just beginning! I hear all the time “where did 2019 go?” While time does seem to fly by, don’t forget the celebrations we get to look forward to in November and December. It’s party time! The holiday season is full of ways to enjoy the rest of 2019 in style. Don’t let a little frost keep you from appreciating the arts in our region. Our art galleries will be full of chances to buy gifts that will last for generations. Live performances will create memories that will be talked about well into 2020 and the food — oh the food! — time to buy a couple more pairs of stretchy pants! We continue to see exciting new opportunities in our region to enjoy the arts and quality of life for which the Pacific Northwest has become known. Art Chowder Magazine is now offered in retail stores from Bellingham, Washington to San Francisco, California, with a growing distribution. We are proud to share our regional talent with the wider West Coast audience. Look for some great new features in the coming new year as well. During the holidays our entire staff at Art Chowder Magazine wishes all of you a happy holiday season filled with excitement and lasting memories. Let’s take the rest of 2019 and make it great! Thankfully yours, Dean Cameron 4 ART CHOWDER MAGAZINE
