Show Notes
Sometimes the best gift for the holidays is the one that was made by someone who lives just down the road. The Society for Arts and Crafts in Boston is holding its annual "CraftBoston Holiday" juried craft show, but this year, it's all virtual! Brigitte Martin, Executive Director of the Society, chats with Nichole about the artists they work with, the stories that art can tell, and how you can find the perfect gift (either for yourself, or someone else). The holidays aren't full of cheer for everyone, especially now that we're dealing with another surge of COVID-19. Dr. David Brendel, a psychiatrist from Belmont, returns to the show to talk with Nichole about factors that make the holidays a difficult time for people, including family troubles, toxic relationships, and COVID concerns.
