Imagine That! is going to be big… and we mean big!

Tim, Mike, and the whole team at Megaprint have been so helpful with getting our large-scale graphics ready for when Imagine That! opens to the public on May 6. They gave us a little behind-the-scenes glimpse at their large format printer while it was working on custom graphics made for us by illustrator Chris Van Dusen just for this show! Those purple lights are ultraviolet lamps used to dry the ink on this nearly four-foot-tall image.

We’ll Miss You, Wendy!

This past Thursday we had a goodbye lunch for Wendy Rolfe, former office manager, finance assistant, development associate, and managing director in charge of office cheerfulness. You were always upbeat, friendly, and a joy to work with, and while we know you’re moving on to new opportunities, you will be dearly missed in the office. We know we’ll see you around town, so don’t be a stranger!
