Dear Arts Lovers,

February is the month of love, and when you love what you’re doing, it’s all year round! When we are in the creative process, between enjoyable and challenging, we are in the flow. The concept of flow is often associated with artistic endeavors; we lose track of time – and ourselves – when we are painting, dancing, making music, or practicing our craft. It is an immense joy to be in that moment. For this month of love, get yourself back in the flow with your favorite art form.  Let’s spend every day doing something we love. It's not just there for the taking - it’s yours for the making!

When the box of chocolates is empty, and the flowers have withered and died, an authentic arts experience will stay in your heart and keep the love alive! For the month of February, take 15% off any arts lesson with promo code LOVEART15
