This "Who Is Us?" section notes the instigating quintessentials, the sagely alchemists, the stubbornly long-standing dreamers, and the presently glowing & ebulliently fresh sparks hovering among us.

 

–– This is a very general list of very important people who have been, and/or still are, a part of the our creative community.  Current affiliation is not mandatory, though the door is always open to create further together, as well as for us to promote the past, present, and future individual works and ventures of anyone we have collectively and cumulatively had the privilege to mingled with as part of our decades of knowing each other. This might be seen as something of a creative family tree, branching out into other crafty endeavors, as well as other practical areas of life that people's paths have led them in.

 Where possible, we would like to actively promote the websites, social media, and available creative tangibles of our friends as a way to encourage them, and to feed into their lives and livelihoods, so others may be enriched by the fruitful work of their labors as part of the greater public and private arts community. 

We are hopeful that this list will remain dynamic with other friends being added per expressed mutual interest. Yet in any case, no person mentioned is in any way obligated and this posted mention can be removed or changed at any time as preferred or requested.
