Testimonial: Affirming What's 'Good About Humanity'
Betty Pollard says ARTvision serves as a good reminder of our human priorities.
“It’s great that Will has been able to start this program,” she says. “Also wonderful is that it’s being well supported by artists and other individuals. It affirms something good about humanity to see such a vision develop and grow. In the midst of what sometimes seems like a greedy, shelfish world - this inspires us to remember that there are people who care and make an impact.”
If you are a previous or current buyer or artist, or just a fan of the event, and have a testimonial, please send it in and we’ll post it to the site. We love hearing from you!
Self-starting Creativity Is Good for your Health
“A study of choral singers done by Cal State Irvine illustrates just how powerful putting it all out there can be. When the singers in the Pacific Chorale did rehearsals, researchers Robert Beck and Thomas Cesario found that a protein essential to fighting disease, immunoglobulin A, increased 150 percent. So the act of singing itself had a powerful effect on well-being. But it gets better: The protein soared 240 percent during live performances. Benefits rise in direct proportion to how much passion you put into the singing. Hum along in self-consciousness or boredom and you don't get the benefit the comes when you let it fly. This is such a great metaphor for the role passion plays in unleashing an extraordinary life.”
A shout out to everyone involved with PI, and ARTvision artists and donors, who each year “let it fly” for a great cause.
