Lovely walk this morning. Glad I beat the rain. "If you’re comfortable, you’re not growing or learning” @tru.studio @chicago_cm #creativemornings #cmtakeaways

Next up: Charles Adler, co-founder of Kickstarter and founder of the Center for Lost Arts. Described as a lifelong nomad—born in the U.K., raised in the U.S., living life exploring the world—Chicago is lucky to have him. Much of his work has centered around supporting and empowering independent artists. His latest endeavor, Lost Arts, is living proof of that and we’re going to be the first to get a look inside (literally) and see what’s to come! Ditch your morning meetings and join us on Friday, June 24!
