Spring brings with it the feeling of possibilities. Warmer weather and sunny days can put a little lift in your step and make anything seem attainable. The world comes back to life and with it so do many of us who have been ever so slightly dormant through the colder, darker months. Now is a great time to capitalize on that renewed energy and see what’s out there. Here are a few opportunities to get you started:

Praxis Center understands that a career in art is a year-round endeavor. But we also know that sometimes it makes sense to use those moments that feel the most promising. For many, one of those moments is the onset of spring and brighter days, a natural boost to our slumbering minds waking up from a long winter. Let Praxis be your guide as you move through your art career.
