Happy Thanksgiving, Creative Army!

On behalf of the entire Stage 32 team, I'd like to wish everyone a happy and healthy Thanksgiving. This year, we have welcomed hundreds of thousands of new members to our growing, creative community, and we are beyond honored to provide each and every one of you a safe haven to connect, be inspired, and come together to make art. We are all extremely grateful for the members of this community and for the incredible relationships and friendships that have bloomed this year. Truly, we feel blessed.

As I've mentioned in past Thanksgiving blogs, I like to use the end of each Turkey Day for some quiet reflection on the year thus far. First and foremost, I hope you will join me in reflecting on those personally impacted by this hideous pandemic. I wish all affected peace, tranquility, and a return to happiness and prosperity.

I also use this day to take stock of my creative and professional goals for the year. What was I hoping to accomplish? What can still be done with the month remaining? I find this to be a cathartic, relaxing exercise and one that always leads to positive forward momentum. Perhaps you'll try it as well?

While you may not get to enjoy some of your typical Thanksgiving traditions during this unconventional year, I am delighted that one Thanksgiving tradition can live on by presenting you with a heaping helping of complimentary Stage 32 content to enjoy after the turkey and throughout the holiday weekend.
