Big news is good news…

by Michael

I am very excited to announce that I have graciously been handed the reigns of local art publication SPOKE(a)N(e) Magazine!

I have to thank Tyson and Sara Habein for this opportunity.  They have created a great work with the magazine and I will do my very best to uphold the quality its readers, including myself, have come to expect from it.

I fully intend on hitting the ground running.  I already have some ideas for the next issue, and new ones come up everyday.  There are some things I will have to sort out along the way.  As the magazine is going from a two person operation to a one-man operation, I will probably be calling on the help of Spokane’s creative community for content.  How that will look practically is one of the bits I’m still trying to iron out.

I have a list of artists I can’t wait to approach for profiles, and that list is only growing longer.  I can’t express how excited I am to see the variety of talent and the growth of the art scene in this town.  When people ask my “why Spokane?” I only need to point to the art community (and that really cool giant Red Flyer downtown) to show why I love this city.

Thank you, Spokane, for being awesome.
