Welcome to Flourish & Flow, a monthly newsletter on arts, tech, style and purpose.

It’s no secret that our society is changing. The importance of community-building and mutual aid couldn’t be greater than it is at this moment. If you are looking for a way to contribute and be solution-oriented, check out the Chicago Urban Art Retreat Center (CUARC) and help speak truth to power through social justice and art.

We are looking for board members and volunteers to help make CUARC a beacon in the North Lawndale community and in the world.

Highlights from our January TechWalk

TechWalk Way is on the move…

(Tech)Walk This Way

Garbage in = garbage out. Good reads, good sounds, good eats, and more…

We’ve been hit with a sledgehammer from day one of 2025 - DO take care of yourselves and this means minding the media you are consuming

Psychologist Jamil Zaki reminds us to not lose hope - it’s a vital tool for sanity, survival and self-fulfillment.

It’s been so very cold here in Chicago with temperatures dipping into the negatives…  my answer to that? Put the oven on and whip up delicious lentil soup, crusty bread, and naturally gluten free clementine cake (although I use what is on hand and this week it was all-purpose + gram flour + cornmeal and a splash of Aperol).

Month in Review (because we couldn’t get it together for the week)

The Blog will be back in February!
