Hooray! It's quite a line up, don't you think? We're downright pumped about this year's market. There's so much wonderful work to share. Each week, Tuesday through Thursday, we plan to showcase a new market artist, their work, and a little peek at where they make the magic happen. We hope you'll join us, it's sure to be an interesting and inspiring way to tick off the weeks leading up to Second Storie, 2012! We already pretty excited about November, what about you?

Congrats to all of you fabulous folks! We're over the moon to have you.
