Great art picks up where nature ends. — Marc Chagall

Good News of the Day:
When a Harlem-based group of artists and community activists wanted to make a difference in their local neighborhoods, they looked for a space that was already being used by the community and had gathering potential. And then they stumbled upon a laundromat. With the help of local and artists participating in their own residency programs, the group sets up daily in a number of laundromats and provides public arts education and programming including sidewalk art, painting, and screen printing — each in laundry-cycle intervals. The nonprofit group that aims to “raise the quality of life for people whose incomes do not guarantee broad access to mainstream arts and cultural facilities” is now officially called the Laundromat Project. http://www.dailygood.org/more.php?n=4560

Kindness, like a boomerang, always returns. — Author Unknown

Good News of the Day:
A touching story of a random act of kindness: “During this past year I’ve had three instances of car trouble: a blowout on a freeway, a bunch of blown fuses and an out-of-gas situation. They all happened while I was driving other people’s cars, which for some reason makes it worse on an emotional level. Each time, when these things happened, I was disgusted with the way people didn’t bother to help. It was enough to make me say stuff like “this country is going to hell in a handbasket,” which I actually said. But you know who came to my rescue all three times? Poor laborers who didn’t even speak any English.” http://www.dailygood.org/more.php?n=4559
