		<description><![CDATA["Design Activist" would be the most appropriate way to describe American industrial designer Stephen Burks. This young multi-talented visionary, who has worked with some of the world’s most recognizable names in fashion and furniture industry, is changing the we way think about design - one idea at a time. By simultaneously using a top-down and a bottom-up approach he brings together the industrialized world’s gatekeepers of culture with traditional people in remote locales to create sustainable objects and symbiotic relationships. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Today's post is written by a guest blogger, Sarah Archer, who is the Director of Greenwich House Pottery. She writes about their current exhibition, <a title="Greenwich House exhibition" href="http://greenwichhouse.org/programs/arts/pottery/exhibitions/mid-century" target="_blank"><em>"Mid-Century Style and Studio Pottery," </em></a>up now through February 10. The exhibition is a must-see for mid-century modernism addicts (I personally would like to move right into the period room she installed), who can also get a fix at <a title="MAD program" href="http://www.madmuseum.org/DO/Calendar/201001/mid-century%20design.aspx" target="_blank">tonight's program at MAD</a>, organized by Sarah. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[First, a little history - during the 1600’s, groups of escaped and shipwrecked African slaves made their way to St Vincent Island, an island of the Lesser Antilles, the islands that form eastern side of the Caribbean Sea. They mixed with the indigenous Caribs and Arawaks and the <a href="http://www.garifuna.com/">Garinagu (that’s plural for Garifuna)</a> were born. They developed a unique language, culture and ritual. Drumming and dance had a central place in the culture. ]]></description>

At the Artist Market of the <a href="http://www.nbaf.org/">National Black Arts Festival</a> in Atlanta this summer I was admiring a silver ring that a vendor was showing me when all of a sudden a burst of brilliant colors emanating from the adjacent stall distracted me, demanded my attention and forced me to walk away from the silver vendor.

It seemed the excitement of the city was echoed in the classroom with everyone jockeying for position in the queue.  I think everyone was a little surprised by the actual experience of enameling, especially when a little chaos is encouraged.]]></description>
