The last picture of my cat youll ever see.
  • The last picture of my cat you'll ever see. YES. THAT IS, INDEED, A BOW TIE.
It's my last day as the Mercury's Arts Editor! I started interning here 10 years ago and now I'm leaving! I'm trying not to be too sentimental about it! It's been a great job and now I'm starting a new great job at Sheepscot Creative and change is good, most of the time, except for when it's really really not. But um... this is good! I'm going to miss having the best co-workers in the world, though. Seriously. No one is better than these guys. The arts were pretty great, too.

If you are an arts-person and need arts-things done, email your calendar listings and press releases to:
arts@portlandmercury.com. That goes to a bunch of people on editorial who will be able to resolve your issue, probably.

The identity of my successor remains shrouded in mystery, but be nice to them, whoever they are.

Oh, and don't forget to check out the fall/winter issue of Agenda, the Mercury's arts guide, which hits the streets today. It's the last big thing I got to work on here and I'm proud of it.

BYE!
