Increasingly, I am getting to create special live events, and none are more special and exciting to me than the Parnelli Awards, which I’ve had the honor of producing for nearly 10 years. This is a special event that is unofficially called...
The St. Louis Art Museum recently reached out to me, saying that they wanted to look into doing their blogs differently. “They come off too much as press releases,” they said. When I looked into them, I found them filled with good...
