At the heart of this week's issue is the Fall Arts Guide. As culture editor Dan Nailen writes in his introduction, “There’s no sugarcoating it, the arts are being decimated by the coronavirus like few other segments of society. … And yet, when we reported the stories for this issue, we found a lot of reasons for hope. We found arts organizations and venues finding success at reaching their audiences online mere months after being at a virtual standstill. We found local theater companies tackling valuable archiving and renovation projects they’d never get to during a ‘normal season.’ We met up-and-coming and established visual artists, poets and musicians creating exciting new work during the pandemic, and exploring ways to get that work seen, read and heard.” Be sure to hold onto the 20-page pullout guide.
