Introducing: The Artist’s Promise
It’s been a while! The leaves are glorious here in New York. I hope autumn is showing off for you as well.
I’m excited to give you a sneak peek at a project that has become a guiding light for CHF’s next chapter.
It’s a children’s book I’ve written with Calvin Korponai entitled The Artist’s Promise. It’s about Santiago, a determined donkey with a lot to say, and Bub, a talented painter who’s in need of a muse. Their coming-of-age journey is a reminder to nurture, value and trust the creativity and ingenuity that reside inside each of us. They are what make everything happen.
Santiago has also worked his magic on our 2025 plans for CHF, and I think you’ll be very pleased with our new direction. I’ll be back in touch soon with more information on those. Meanwhile, The Artist’s Promise will be available beginning November 19, and I can’t wait for you to see it!
With great appreciation for your creative endeavors,
Elizabeth
