"Making art a priority in my life felt like a pivotal moment, but it was actually a gradual one. For me, it was a combination of consistently practicing my craft and being ready to jump when opportunities arrived.

The first time I walked into emergency arts I knew it was something special. I walked in through the coffee shop, had a blueberry muffin, and signed the lease for a studio space 3 days later. I wasn't making much with my art at the time. It was a stupid, reckless plan that I had no doubts about. It was powerful because it was a tangible action of believing in myself." -Ashley Swarts
