One evening, during the pandemic,  while listening to the Gewandhaus Orchestra online, I realized that we could help make your days a little brighter by presenting art discussions similar to what we do on our travel journeys. And because we were all sequestered, many musicians and teachers were out of work due to canceled concerts and events.

 

So to give you something to do and to help artists during this unprecedented time, Artful Journeys  assembled some of our faculty to enliven your senses and help you through the barriers of isolation. Thanks to technology such as Zoom, we were able to bring these presentations into your home. 

​

In 2025, we continue to bring you these Armchair Journeys, albeit a lot fewer.  Freedom to go places and mingle again has made zoom meetings not obsolete, but less necessary, although we have learned that zoom is a great convenience.  The poetry group that began in June 2020 is still going strong and I almost feel guilty when I am traveling and cannot host a session or two.  However, I don't feel guilty enough not to travel!!

​

Keep an eye out for more Armchairs.  There will be more.
