FROM THE AMBASSADOR
ARE YOU SUFFERING FROM FOMO?
The holiday season is
nearly upon us, and
with it comes the annual
whirlwind of activities
and deadlines — the
family gatherings, the
shopping, the cooking,
all wrapped up in expectations. So many
things to do, so little time. No wonder
some of us are anxious and afflicted with
FOMO, the Fear Of Missing Out.
As the definitive source for arts happenings in the greater Portland area,
Artslandia has the cure. Not only does
it offer you the opportunity always to be
in the know, but it also provides an easy
solution for many holiday quandaries.
Having difficulty finding the right gift
for someone? Consider tickets to any
of our partners and featured organizations. Interested in starting a new holiday tradition? Attend the ballet together
with your family. Looking for an alternative to the usual party? Gather your
friends for an evening of funky music.
Artslandia keeps you informed with previews and peeks behind the scenes.
Live performances are especially nourishing to the soul at this time of year. The
experience removes us from our daily
routine and provides a much needed
space for respite, reflection and renewal.
Open yourself up to the beauty of creativity. Unplug. Let stress fall away. Let go of
the FOMO, and immerse yourself in the
true spirit of the season, with good cheer,
wonder and appreciation of life’s beauty,
community and generosity. Savor and
share the charm of a life that doesn’t need
to be photographed, tagged or posted —
a life less connected but more shared.
